See that the wires are heavy enough to carry the current and that all the connections are kept clean and bright as every corroded joint causes needless resistance. Inspect battery connections, etc., occasionally, as they have a habit of working loose. Look well to the ground connection, which should be very securely made and placed where it will not corrode. Be sure the battery, especially if dry cells are used, is where it cannot get wet, as the paste-board may absorb sufficient moisture to short circuit the cells. See that all wires are securely fastened so that they cannot by any means rub or chafe against either wood or metal parts; especially the secondary wires. Frequently examine the condition of the plugs, as plug trouble is often looked for elsewhere. Don't allow the wires to become water- or oil-soaked, as short circuiting will probably result., Don't screw down electrical connections with the fingers, as a tight joint cannot be made. Use pliers. Don't allow the storage it will not operate the coil. battery to get so far discharged that See that the vibrators are set as lightly as possible to run the engine without skipping, otherwise they will waste current. Don't take it for granted you have ignition trouble every time the engine stops. Don't start out knowing the battery to be nearly exhausted, as it may run all right to start with, but will probably go out of business at a most inopportune time and place. Don't adjust the coil vibrator for the biggest possible spark, as it wastes current. Don't think the coil is no good if the vibrators do not buzz exactly alike. Don't test storage batteries with an ammeter unless they are charging or discharging. Don't strain the coil by disconnecting the secondary wires com pletely so that no spark can jump, or by testing how far it will jump. 'Don't screw or nail anything on to the coil box, as you may injure it. Don't tolerate any loose wires or poorly made connections. Fix them at once. |
