Installation and test of an International Harvester co gasoline engine . Figure II. Itulliiiii ol <,hiiilir hcail TEST OF I. H. C. GASOLINE ENGIKE GOVERNOR:- The go-vernor is of the fly-ball type and is spring driven from the camshaft, the spring preventing the governor valvefrom being affected by sudden changes of speeddue to shock or jar. This governor is verysensitive and operates the throttle valve whichcontrols the amount and quality of fuel admittedinto the cylinder. This method as used insuresa power stroke for every revolution of theengine. IGNITION, The ignition system is of themake and break type and runs either on batteriesor auto-sparker. The movable electrode is pro-vided with an outer bearing to support the endof the spindle which reduces compression leakage,The lower end of the igniter push rod bears upona steel finger which rides on the ignition cam.^he cam is formed like a spiral with a suddendrop at the end of the revolution. The fingermay be moved horizontally acrpss the cam byturning the igniter control knobs, on the. 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 i
