NSPECTION IS AN
IMPORTANT FEATURE
OF NEW FORD CARS
'Precision manufacturing and
an unusual degree of Importance
which the Ford Motor company
attaches to the Inspection of Model
A cars has gone, far to eliminate
that tedious process known as the
'breaking in' of a new automo
bile." says Geo. Gates, of the Gates
Auto company, local dealeY.
"On the windshields of the new
Model A are directions which sug
gest a driving speed limit for the
first 6 AO miles of Zb miles per
hur. This is in marked contrast
to the old line of instruction which
cautioned against a speed ot more
than 20 or 25 miles an hour tor
at leabt 1000 miles.
"Excess heat is the .most de
structive agency which may affect
an automobile, particularly in the
first several hunrded miles It is
driven. Friction Is mainly respon
sible for overheating, and a piston
that is fitted too tightly may seize
and in in turn score the cylinder
wall. This means an expensive re
pair Job.
