A. To feed as small a quantity of oil as possible and regularly to give
perfect lubrication.
5. Q. Why is it bad practice to keep engine oil close to boiler in warm
weather?
A. The oil is thinned to such a degree by the heat of the boiler that it
runs off as soon as applied, and very often a hot bearing is the result.
6. Q. In what manner would you care for a hot bearing if discovered on
the road?
A. Use as much time as available in cooling the same, making sure that
all moving parts are free and carefully lubricated before proceeding.
