When the piston moves, it draws in air through the valve from the opening a andthe pipe 6, and at the same time draws in gas through the small opening k, on the back of thevalve, which is then opposite the passage B in the valve cover which communicates with the pipe h,Fig. 1229, above. The admission opening having been thus made and closed, the piston begins toreturn, and during its return the valve, moving continuously, keeps the port I closed. As thesecond stroke commences, the passage n comes opposite I, having been in communication with mand 0. In the chamber m a small gas jet is always burning, fed by the pipe m, Fig. 1229, andthrough 0 a small stream of gas is allowed to pass. The passage n thus filled with gas from oignited from m comes to I; this ignites the mixture in tlie cylinder and starts the stroke, whileon the return stroke of the piston, the spent gases are discharged through the opening q^ in thebottom of the cylinder. It is necessary that the valve s
