TO FORD USERS.

A SAVING DEVICE' Ford; users will be interested in a new device for the purpose of eliniinI ating all electrical troubles and promoting slower and sweeter running of their cars without stalling. It is a special attachment for the . elimination of troubles with the Ford commutator. The clevice drives off the timing gears by an ingeniously fitted helical gear and works in a perpendicular manner, similar to , that of the Hudson, Essex and Buick cars. Instead of .high tension current being distributed by four Ford coils, as is the case with all present models, only one coil is required, the current being conveyed to a distributing centre through a set of contact points fitted with a large condenser, and from thereon to each respective sparking plug. ' The complete unit is very ’ . conveniently fitted to the engine so , that all wiring can be readily inspect- . ed, and all trouble arising out of , burning, breaking or misplacing is I done away with.*'. The advantages of ( the fitting are numerous. All prer vious ignition troubles ’ such a<s hard starting through an ojled or 'carbon- | ised commutator, back-firing, etc., are finished with. Your car ’ will travel , on top gear at an idling pace without bucking; also a. considerable savk ing of benzine is proved, because your car will run more, efficiently oil an ‘ j even beat caused by the design of fhe unit. There is an ingeniously fitted automatic governor, which is timed to [ the revolutions of the crankshaft, and in / turn advances and retards, the / spark regardless of' speed, and fires the charge at the exact * moment, which produces maximum amount of • power. In short,, it makes a Ford ’ beat itself at everv turn: it gives k more power, steadier pull and an k 1 almost unbelievable pickup. It pro- • | vides more sneed than is safe to use. 0 I and allows throttling down to a snail 9 pace without jumping or jerking. 1 Testimonials from abroad all state : that the “Ford Bosch Fitting” fullyjustifies all the claims of the makers. J Numerous local risers are most enthusiastic in their praise of the unit. Tliere is a six months guarantee with every unit sold. The local ° agents, Messrs. Gyde and Barringer, 9 electrical engineers, High Street, 8 undertake to demonstrate and fit the unit on any Ford free of charge if it fails to do all that is claimed.*
