The Motor Dealer and Service ARTICLE NO. 5 " KNOCKS" By L. H. HAGERLING Often times when taking a small incline or on an exceptionally hard pull, the motorist hears small knocks coming from his engine. To the careful motorist this is a warn ing that something Is going wrong in the vital part of his car, some thing that needs attention immedi ately. Others who are more or less careless about their motor pass it up as one of the inevitable "things" that are but daily occurrences about the car he is running. There is a reason for every knock and noise in your motor. It may be isfrom one of several reasons that these knocks are heard on hard "pulls, but the most common reason is carbon on the piston head. There is a certain amount of spaoe neces sary In a cylinder for the proper ex plosion of the gas. Under ordinary circumstances the explosion will take place without knocking but under a strain when everything Is working hard in unison there must bo that certain amount of clearance or there will be a knock. This is what is commonly known as a gasoline knock and is remedied by cleaning out the carbon. Other reasons for knocks in the motor are loose bearing, loose pis ton rings, loost rist pins, loose cam shaft, loose main bearings and many other things that come loose and knock with the turning over of the motor. And they are hard to dis tinguish It takes an experienced mechanic to tell just what is that is knocking, whether it be bearings or f'sERVICE BEAUTY 1 The New Anniversary Apperson Eight Is Here ''' WE ARE DISTRIBUTOR FOR CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA KEYSTONE SALES CO.

SCHIFFMAN, Prop. _ BOTH PHONES CHELSEA AUTO WRECKING SATURDAY EVENING, a gas knock and this is why the careful motorist takes the hint when he hears a knock and has it looked Into at once. Many a time could a bearing be saved or a'connecting rod kept from going through the crank case if only that little knock would have been looked after. And many a large bill for repairs is saved by getting after that little knock when it is tirts heard. And this is where the motor deal er service comes in. The dealer who Is conscientious and conducting his business on a service basis is al ways glad to give any information whatever that will mean better re sults from your motor. If a knock develops in your wotor when it is still under the guarantee, the dealer will gladly tighten up the bearing or If the motor is older and out of guar antee, it means but a small outlay of money to have the knock looked after. , 1 It is the small details that once neglected in a motor cause it to loose power, to lack pep, to slow down and to cause many other inconven iences. The many troubles in start ing a motor can be traced to the small thing that started trouble. It is the little things that once looked after and given the necessary atten tion that make you feel that you have really gotten your money's worth out of the car you have pur chased and that it Is the best little old car on the market. It is mainly up to the driver of a car just what it will do for him and it is my recom mendation that no matter what kind of car you may own. It is to your advantage to give attention to the little knocks that develop and in doing that you will lay at rest the "big' knocks that are sure to de velop later In more ways than one. GAR.
