Pollution to Its Sources
•
To combat that pollution, some manufac-
turers have modified their engines, by -reducing
• compression ratios and retarding ignition tim-
ing, to aid in reducing pollutants by better ac-
cepting the new low-lead or no-lead gasolines.
Other measures have also been introduced to
aid more complete burning of the fuel/air mix-
ture and to stop evaporation of fuel.
All of these steps, while helping to accomplish
the intended purpose, require additional care
41
by the individual motorist to keep the engines
within critical tolerances necessary for clean
operation.
A University of Michigan research program
has shown one of the best ways to keep an en-
gine clean — as well as the mirage must breathe
— is to keep it tuned.
That means spark plugs must be replaced at
regular intervals, as well as the air cleaner and
other replaceable parts. And it's vitally impor-
tant that the engine be tuned to manufacturers'
specifications.
The accompanying report notes some of the
problems that can increase pollution and how
critical tuning is today.
Three Basic Adjustments' Furnish Keys to
• Converting Average Car for Cleaner Operation
SPARK PLUG MISFIRE
— A two percent rate of mis-
fire can more than double
the amount of unburned hy-
fj
The two percent misfire is
critical since the average
motorist cannot detect that
his engine is acting up with
that rate of malfunction. So
he is not aware there's any-
thing wrong, let alone the
fact that his car is polluting
excessively. Causes of spark
plug misfire include worn out
spark plugs deficiencies in
other ignition components,
such as points, distributor
caps, rotors or cables.
OVERRICH FUEL SUP.
• PLY — The function of the
carburetor is to mix the gaso-
line with air and feed the
mixture to the combustion
chamber. An overrich mix-
ture can result in 200 to 300
Percent increased unburned
hydrocarbons.
Typical causes of an over-
rich fuel mixture include
clogged air filters restricting
the supply of air, improperly
adjusted idle mixture and a
carburetor in need of serv-
icing.
TIMING — With the new
anti-pollution devices on cars,
some motorists complain
about loss of power.
Some auto service techni-
cians will try to compensate
for this condition by advanc-

ing the timing settings be-
yond what car makers rec-
ommend. As a result the pro-
duction of unburned hydro-
carbons can increase from 10
to 30 percent. In addition, the
over advanced timing can
shorten spark plug life and
damage the engine, thus In-
creasing pollution even fur-
ther.

Other incidents of neglect-
ed maintenance can increase
air pollution. These include
using spark plugs of incor-
rect heat range, use of im-
proper fuel for the engine
and failure to keep anti-pol-
lution devices in good work-
ing condition.

Avoid Battery
Problems With
Quick Check
Ever wonder why some-
times during starting, your
car's battery sounds like it's
dying — then suddenly kicks
off?
A major source of the prob-
lem could be dirty battery
terminals or loose connec-
tions.
Open the hood of your car.
Are the battery terminals
covered with what looks like
a green moss? If not, are they
loose? The green substance
is acid build-up. When
reaches a saturation point of
covering the lead terminals,
energy transmission is im-
paired and starting becomes
a problem.
In advance stages of acid
build-up, not enough energy
is transmitted to even turn WANT ADS BRING QUICK RESULTS : Dial 527-0240
