Always be sure that the emergency brake is fully released before driving the car away. Leaving the brake on
retards the acceleration of the car and tends to burn out the brakes.
DON'T RACE THE MOTOR NEEDLESSLY.
EVERY WEEK OR SO, THE CAR SHOULD BE LOOKED OVER THOROUGHLY AND OIL APPLIED
THROUGH THE VARIOUS OIL HOLES PROVIDED FOR THAT PURPOSE; ALSO, SUCH MOVING
PARTS AS ROD ENDS, PINS, CLEVISES, ETC., SHOULD BE WELL LUBRICATED.
See oiling chart, page 37.
Use Good Motor Oil
We cannot lay too much stress upon the importance of using a good quality of lubricating oil.
Whenever possible, buy your oil in cans. Do not accept bulk oil from a garage unless you are certain of its
origin. Remember that motor oils are made from crude petroleum and the refineries are all operated by large
corporations. These corporations sell to jobbers all over the country, who are free to sell it under any name they
please They do not always buy from the same source, consequently, oil bearing (he same trade name may vary
greatly in quality when purchased in different parts of the country.
IT IS NOT ECONOMICAL TO BUY CHEAP OIL. ALWAYS BUY THE BEST AND USE IT AS WE
RECOMMEND.
We suggest you consult the nearest Hudson dealer and obtain his recommendations before purchasing oils
offered you by local jobbers. If for any reason you are unable to obtain satisfactory advice locally, write the
factory. We will give you the benefit of our experience.
Remember that in winter a thinner grade of oil must be used, owing to its tendency to congeal at low
temperatures. In summer, a medium grade of oil must be used on account of the higher temperature at which the
motor operates.
A tendency to overheat, indicated by rapid evaporation of water from the cooling system or laboring of the
motor under heavy loads, may often be eliminated by using a different grade of oil or washing out the oil
reservoir.
DIAGNOSIS OF COMMON TROUBLE
If Motor Stops
1. Out of gasoline. (Try pet cock on bottom of Vacuum tank.)
2. Vent may be clogged. (Vent is in rear tank cap.)
3. Disconnected spark. plug cables or other loose electrical connections.
4. Dirty contact points in the distributor or accumulation of oil or dirt on the underside of the distributor
cover.
5. Out of motor oil, indicated usually by a knocking in the motor, followed by an abrupt stop. If this occurs,
do not attempt to use either the electric starter or hand crank until the motor has been allowed to cool off.
Kerosene should be applied to the pet cocks while the motor is still warm. This usually is a serious matter, and the
motor should have the attention of a good mechanic before attempting to put the car into service again.

6. Cannot crank motor. Frozen water pump. Seized motor bearings, due to Lack of oil. Transmission gears
