WARNING TO MOTORISTS AGAINST SO-CALLED GASOLINE ECONOMIZERS “Elixirs” Alleged to Have No Effect Upon Gasoline Efficiency t X or, t “Increases gasoline efficiency any- where from 15 to 100 per cent. , “These claims vary somewhat ac- cording to ..e brazenness of the ad- vertiser, but the foregoing are typi- cal.” The United States Bureau of Stand- ards is quoted as following with ref- erence to products such as those men- tioned in the report: “The naturai conclusion from the tests so far performed is that nearly, if not quite all, the seeming improve- ment in engine operation when these ‘elixers,” etc., are added to the gaso- line is due to the reduction in the proportion of gasoline used, caused by adjustment in the carburetor, |t which is nearly always recommended to be made when the new fuel ‘dope’ is added. It is of course a well known |a fact that many engines, particularly automobile engines, are habitually operated on too rich a mixture, main- 1y for the sake of ease of starting and satisfactory: operation when first started, and that the reduction in the proportion of gasoline to air will of- ten produce all the desired results claimed for these ‘tonics,” etc., with- OUL thae af i o /. el Motorists are warned against so- called *‘Gasoline Economizers” in a report-just issued by the National Vigilance committee of the Associat- ed Advertising clubs of the World, New York city, which declares such ‘“economizers” have no effect upon oline efficiency, but are, in reali- y,"nothing more than colored moth alls. ‘The report quotes the United States Bureau of Standards, at Washington, with the statement that these moth ball economizers have no appreciable - -effect in giving gasoline more “pep”, and explains that testimonia: letters used by the many ianufacturers of such tablets result from the faci twat along with the tablets, the maker gsends instructions concerning the ad- Justment of the gasoline supply for the motor. It is a well known fact, says the report, that most motorists use a richer mixture of gasoline than is really necessary for the proper op- eration of the engine, using such a mixture because the car will start with greater ease"with the carpure- ’ tor adjusted for.a rich mixture. The report of the committee is ad- B dressed to the publishers of news- i papers and other periodicals, with i the purpose of warning them against the ‘acceptance of advertisements of all such preparations, and thus be- coming parties to a fraud upon their readers. It mentions several prepar- ations by name, but adds that there .are a great many others.
