Synopsis

This book provides a comprehensive guide to the inner workings of a gasolene automobile. The author details the purpose and function of every element and fitting found within a typical car of the era, from the relatively simple motor-tricycle to the more complex motor car. The book describes the four-cycle Otto process that forms the basis of internal-combustion engine operation and introduces the reader to the various systems that combine to propel the vehicle, such as the transmission, drivetrain, and steering. The author provides special attention to the gasolene engine and its related systems, including the float-feed carburetor, ignition coil, and sparking plugs. Diagrams and illustrations help to clarify the explanations throughout the text, offering a thorough understanding of the mechanical principles that govern motor vehicles.
