ORDIARY HOTOR | GASOLINE BACKED Equals Special Fuel if Engine! Has Adequate Spark Con- trol, Bulletin Says. G SRR By the Associated Press. + ANN ARBOR, Mich, May 11.—A University of Michigan department of eering bulletin today announces that motorists accustomed to using spe- cjal fuels for their high-compression en- #nes may, if necessary, mrke flicient use of ordinary gasolines if their motors have adequate spark control. “If a high-compression engine is to operate with ordinary gasoline the spark should be so'retarded as to reduce in- tensity of the detonation or knock,” the 4 bulletin states. “In this manner the high-compression engine may be run with regular gasoline with results at Jeast equal 1o thbse obtained with a low- compression motor. With the spark properly advanced the high-compression | engine will develop more power with| the use of anti-knock fuels than will | the low-compression type under any/ conditions.” Contrary fo the belief of most mo- torists, says the bulletin, a moderate | _degree of engine knock means an in-| orease rather than a decrease in power obtained from the particular fuel under use. “Fngine power increases slowly,” the report. adds, “with the increase in com- pression, even after detonation or knock- ing begins, and continues until very | severe knocking oceurs with every ex- losion. at which point there is a sharp rop in power.” i The bulletin warns motorists not. to try getting more power by trying fo gauge the knock. because it is easy to make costly mistakes.
