With six-cylinder engines having internal manifolds itis rather difficult to ascertain what variations are takingplace in the supply of gas to the different cylinders, andonly a certain notion can be obtained when starting upwith the engine cold. For this type of engine two mani-fold arrangements are common, namely the one shown inFig. 35 when the firing order is 1-4-2-6-3-5, and the oneshown in Fig. 36 with the firing order 1-5-3-6-4-2. Forsmall engines with comparatively small intake pipes, theoperation is practically perfect with these two layouts,and it is impossible to detect any substantial varia-. t^^v^^WiW^ QD
