Installation and test of an International Harvester co gasoline engine . Figure 12. Fly-I)illl goveiiior TEST OF I. H. C, GASOLINE ENGIIOScrank case* When the knobs are turned down sothat the connecting har is in the lowest posi-tion, the igniters are in the late or start-ing position* When the knobs are turned up theconnecting bar pulls the ginger in against thedirection of rotation of the cam shaft andcauses the igniter to drop earlier in the igniter knobs can be adjusted up or down bymeans of a threaded sleeve and lock nut. Thismakes an easy way of adjusting the time ofignition. The current for the ignition is suppliedby a Motsinger Auto-sparker which is mounted ona specially designed shelf directly over thefly wheel. The auto-sparker pulleyt which isfaced with leather, is run by friction on thefly wheel. This sparker, which is simply asmall shunt wound dynamo, generates a currentwhich is led through an intensifying coil andthence to the igniter terminals. Between theintensifier and the igniter a switch was placed. Figure 18. Ittnltor TEST OF I. H. C. GASOLINE ENGINE for starting duty on storage batteries. Theauto-sparker is provided with a fly9ballgovernor on the back of the shaft, which liftsthe sparker wheel off of the fly ^eel by meansof a link motion when the speed of the generatorbecomes excessive. The speed at which thisoccurs can be varied by means of an adjustablespring on the governor link mechanism. Forour purposes the best speed was found to beabout .twelve hvindred R, P. M. CARBURETTOR, The gasoline mixing attachmentwhich is shown in section and also complete inthe accompanying cuts, operates as follows: Thegasoline is pumped up from the gasoline tank bya pump operated from an eccentric set on one endof the cam shaft, to an overflow chamber wherethe level of gasoline in the carburettot is main-tained constant by an overflow pipe leading backto the gasoline tank. From the overflow chamberthe gasoline is sucked into the mixing chamberthrough
