Answer to “Lover’s Lane” puzzler, new 1935 Chevy with low battery. Answer states spark plugs were on top of the engine, implying engine was a flathead. Not true, ‘35 Chevies had an OHV 6. They should have used Dodge or Studebaker, they did use flathead engines. ---

You’re right. Here’s a '35 Chevy engine, all you’d be able to grab with pliers would be the ceramic ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/cartalk/original/3X/5/e/5e782acae7f573f72f0085409d5e20f824a38192.jpeg) ---

Another Puzzler mistake (actually an incomplete answer) was on “The Last Move” puzzler. The answer includes this explanation: “And the piece that is now the white rook, it had just been a pawn, and the move we were looking for is that pawn became a rook when it reached the end of the board, and therefore, the black king is now in check in two places.” It needs to say this: “And the piece that is now the white rook, it had just been a pawn, and the move we were looking for is that pawn became a rook when it reached the end of the board **by capturing one of the black side’s pieces (moving diagonally)**, and therefore, the black king is now in check in two places.” ---

I was puzzled by how the black king could be in check but the next move was white, but was thinking it was some sort of subtle chess rule. A white pawn taking a black corner piece on the diagonal would be blocking the check prior. ---

Actually, in the 20s, the F head engine had the advantage because it could have larger valves and the OHV ngines did not gain superiority until higher octane gas came along enabled a higher compression ratio requiring a smaller combustion chamber. ---

A number of vehicles did use F heads including Jeep and Rolls-Royce. I have only seen one F head in my life, that was a Jeep. You are correct F heads allowed larger valves than their Flathead and OHV counterparts.
