There is an electric light and power system, a water sys tem, a fuel system. In the new Ford, you will find each of these systems of the latest design and best materials. Every part has been made to serve you faith fully ami well at a minimum of trouble and expense. Take, for example, the generator—one of the most important parts of the elec trical system which supplies the current for lighting and for engine ignition. In the new Ford, the gen erator is of the power-house type and is distinctive in many features. It has been specially designed to pre vent most forma of trouble. Oiling is necessary only once a year. About the only thing you need do is to have the charging rate changed as the seasons change. Closely allied to the elec trical system is the ignition system. It, too, is of new mechanical design in the new Ford. There is but one high tension cable and that connects the coil with the distributor. Even cables from the distributor to the spark plugs have been eliminated. Special care has also been taken to make the dis tributor water-proof, thus preventing short circuits from rain, etc. The entire electrical and ignition systems of the new Ford are so simple in design anil so carefully made that they will give you surpris ingly little trouble. Yet that doesn't mean they should lie neglected. Certain little attentions are needed from time to time. The storage battery should be given water and the connections kept clean. The generator charging rate should be changed as indi cated. Spark plugs should be cleaned at regular inter vals. Distributor 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 Io 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 thou sands of miles of caref ree. economical motoring.
