On the other hand, if cylinder 2, on Figs. 7 and 8,is the first to aspire, it will only take up the gasoline con-densed at points a, while the liquid fuel at b will be drawninto cylinder 1. This, therefore, should form the basis of the firing orderfor engines of this type, as well as for four, six and eightcylinders in line with one or several carbureters. Thismatter can readily be controlled on an engine with an ex-ternal unheated manifold, when it will be found that thetwo cylinders will stand quite a different carbureter. 1372 AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRIESTHE AUTOMOBILE June 23, 1921
