Also inspect float and float valve and note if same pork freely and properly. Motoring Department, The Sentinel~— is there any advantage in putting lu- bricating oil in the gasolene? Are any motor car engines so lubricated? V. K. . There are a number of cases where lubricating oil is used in the gasolene and in this manner fed to the cylind- er. There are no particular advantag- es to this system. However, in cases whoere two-cycle motors are used it is necessary and advisable.

Likewise if the float valve does not seat the carbure' tor will flood. When the gasolene gets to a certain level in the float chamb- er the float in rising should automat- ically cut off the supply of gasolene from the tank. if this valve leaks you cam. readily understand that the car- buretor must flood. Any experienced garage mechanic should be able to de- termine this for you and make the necessary repairs. Quite often by tap ping the needle into the valve seat the leak can he stepped. immunization of the cylinders will cause the motor to knock.

Motoring Department, The Sentinel— Wiii you please advise me why i must advance my spark over half way to start my engine Where can I see the car called ‘Little Giant?’ Are they still manufactured, and where can i find out all about them?-—E. C. Where the battery ignition system is outplayed it should not be necessary to advance the spark in starting. The fact that you moved the lever up half way on the quadrant does not neces- sarily mean that the spark occurs in the cylinder in advance of top centre. The spark is considered advanced when. it takes place within the cylind- or. previous to top centre. Where the magneto is used it is necessary to advance the spark some- ‘ what in cranking to obtain a sufficient- ly hot spark to ignite the gases. The Chicago Pneumatic Tool Com- pany of Chicago, “1., makes the car called “The Little Giant." You might write them for further information. Motoring Department, The Sentinel— diave had my car in dead storage for some time and would like to know if it is necessary to clean out the old oil , and put in entirely fresh oil, or can i go ahead using car with the old oil without any danger 'to motor or car? If it is necessary to clean out old oil, how shall 'I proceedlAn answer will oblige. CONSTANT READER After a car has been standing in storage for a long time it is advisable to install fresh oil before placing it in service. This is not absolutely no- . cessary, but his more advisable to do so. All the old oil and sediment should be flushed from the crank case with ‘ kerosene before the new oil is put in. Also be sure that all the kerosene is , removed before the fresh oil is used. It is not a bad plan to change the oil in the crank case once in a white, es- pecially where the oil is used over and over. .- . . * Motoring Department, The Sentinel— .
