The impulse vibration ofone cylinder neutralizes that on the other, and practi-cally eliminates vibration of the whole. The cylindersbeing opposed, take up all vibration between them,and the result is a silent, smooth running engine thatcan only be duplicated by an electric motor. Auto-mobile manufacturers recognize this principle anduse the horizontal opposed type of motor Do manufacturers ot upright engines Dell you because their crank shafts are fitted withcounterbalance bobs they eliminate vibration i Well, don t you believe it. Ride in a boat witha vertical engine and then in one fitted with the Leader Horizontal Opposed Engine, and notethe
