CARBURATIONThe carburation of the air on its wayto the cylinders is accomplished by means ofa 1-1/4 Scheblor carburetor, model *D a cutof which I3 shown on page 6.

For low speeds the air for the mix-ture enters through a notch in the seat ofthe compensating valve. When the speed in-ci-eaaos, more air la required since tho flo\7of gasoline is greater, and this additionalsupply is drawn througii the compensatingvalve which opens against the resistance ofa spring.
