Tests of exhaust vapors have shown weaknesses in many
engines. By such tests you can always tell how good an
engine is.
In the great Chalmers engine so very little in the way
of unused or unburned gas comes out of the exhaust as to be
almost negligible. The gas is used up all of it in the
Chalmers.
The moment it passes fi;om the throat of the carburetor
it strikes the now noted "Hot-Spot" where it is heated and
"cracked-up" and then rushed on to the combustion cham
bers via the "Ram's-Horn" Manifold.
When the spark touches it off there is translated a power
such as a gas engine has never known; all the brute force
imaginable, yet tamed down into a softness that is as smooth
as deep water.
Once you play with it with your right foot you will be
amazed at the thrill it'll give you.
