There is nu eleelric light mid power system, a Hater system, a fuel system. In the new Ford, you will fiinl each of these systems of the latest design und built of the best ma terials. Every part has been made to serve you faithfully and well and at a minimum of trouble and expense. Take, for example, the genera torone of the mcst important parts of the electrical system which supplies the current for lighting and for engine ignition. In the new Ford, the generator is of the power-house type and is distinctive in many features. It has been specially designed to prevent most forms of trouble. Oiling is necessary only once a year. About the oidy thing you need do is to have the charging rate changed as the seasons change. Closely allied to the electrical system is the ignition system. It, too, is of new mechanical design in the new Ford. There is but one high tension cable anil that con nects the coil with the ilistributor. Even cables from the distributor lo the spark plugs have been eliminated. Special care has also been taken to make the distribu tor water-proof, thus preventing short circuits from rain, etc. The electrical and ignition sys tems of the new Ford are so simple in design and so carefully made that they will give you surprisingly little trouble. Yet that doesn't mean they should be neglected. Certain little attentions are needed from time to time. The storage battery should be given water and the connections kept clean. The generator charg ing rate should be changed as in dicated. Spark plugs should be cleaned at regular intervals. , Dis tributor points should also be kept clean and the distributor cam given a light film of vaseline every 2000 miles. These are just little things, but they mean a great deal to your car. You can have them looked after at very small cost by the Ford dealer when you take the car in for oiling and greasing. A thorough checking-up at regular intervals will lengthen the life of your car and give you many thousands of miles of care free, economical motoring. Ford Motor Company
