If the brake squeaks, due to improper adjustment, it is because some portion of the brake has been allowed to
do most of the work and as a result, the lining is worn down to the rivets, which are probably bearing on the brake
drum. This will always cause squeaking and can only be eliminated by relining and centralizing the brake band
If the brakes are properly centralized and kept in such adjustment, the wear will be equalized over their entire
surface.
The Gasoline System
The gasoline is carried in a 20-gallon tank hung at the rear of the car, There is an indicator in this tank which
shows the amount of gasoline carried.
The indicator may be removed for purposes of adjustment or repair. Its construction is extremely simple, the
indicating action being obtained by means of a rectangular cork float, running in a guide and revolving a twisted
strip of brass as it moves up and down- The indicator needle is attached to the end of this strip of brass. There is
nothing that can get out of adjustment except through corrosion or damage to the float. is practically the only
repair that will ever be necessary
