Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gasoline Automobiles The purpose of this book is to present clearly, briefly, and interestingly the essential principles of automobile construction and operation. It is expected to furnish practical help to drivers who, when faced by ordinary operating troubles, want to know how to locate the cause and apply the remedy. Ordinarily an owner wishes to know first of all the uses of the numerous parts of his automobile, so that he may anticipate repairs and, when repairs actually become necessary, he may know where to begin repair work, and whether, once done, such work is right and the charges therefor are reasonable. Because of the increasing cost of materials and services there is a growing tendency among owners to keep automobiles for several seasons. There is, therefore, more incentive than formerly to keep automobiles in good repair. Automobiles generally deteriorate more because of lack of care and attention than from actual use. Much of this deterioration is due to ignorance and the consequent failure to prevent the kind of wear which, if not corrected, will lead to heavy expenses for repairs. As the cost of repairs has greatly increased of late because of labor charges, automobile operators are becoming interested in finding ways of decreasing ordinary as well as extraordinary running expenses. They want to learn how to get the last unit of power from a gallon of gasoline and how to exact the greatest possible mileage from an automobile before it is exchanged for a new one.
