Consequently thereservoir will fill so fullthat when the engine does fig. 304—float feed carbx;retortake a charge there will be so much gasoline in itthat there will not be complete combustion, and as aresult the explosion will be weak and the exhaust gasMjiU be black smoke. The carburetor should be near thecylinder to enable the mixture to be easily Igniters.—There are two general types of ignitors.
