Do not make a complete revolu- tionary motion when grinding wval- ves. Oscillate the valve one-quarter turn back and forth, using a screw driver of a small hand drill. Lift the valve occasionally and start in a new position. : ------ Give & new fan belt an extra stretch with the hand before adjust- ing; it will take out much of its ear- ly wearing stretch and postpone the time when the second adjustment is necessary... Remember that in fast driving or mountain work, the engine uses more oil. Examine the oll level fre- quently and watch the oil gauge. When applying a single new tire, put it on the right hand wheel. This wheel does the harder work, due to the crown of the road. : Everything is fair in love and war, and if your partner didn't see you miss that brassie swing com- pletely in the rough don't count it.
