Would recommend the cafbureter you have be properly adjusted for cold weather and that the hot air supply be correctly regulated. The Stromberg is a good carbureter and should do your work.

To the Awtammobiie Riu 1 would \ike to have @ clear planation with a small diagram of the differant strokes on a two and four-cycle engipe and the ry they work. a, J. B Space prevents me from publish- ing @ diagram for you, but @ careful reading of the following description of the sequence of operations in the two types of motors should be of benefit to you: Four-cycle motor: First down stroke of the motor is called the in- let or suction stroke and draws « fresh charge of gas (gasoline vapor id air) into the cylin, ; fret ap stroke Is tho compression stroke and the gas in compressed to a point where it will ignite readily, by the piston, in coming up, pressing th was against at the top of the comp the gas is ignited (fired) by a #park from the distributor or 10 Jumping across the points of the spar! pre id the piston ie driven down by the resulting explosion on wha! called the explosion or powor stroke; the last or second up stroke is called the exhaust stroke, because the burned are forced out, partly by their own expansion and partly by the upward travel of the piston. Two-cyele motor: First down stroke of the motor the charge of as. which has alreddy entered, is red. As the piston geta down to the bottom of the stroke it uncovers @ port (opening) in the side of the oylinder and the burning gases rush out through this opening. Thus we have a combination of the power and exhaust stroke in on Meanwhile fresh gas has been entering through an opening (port) uncovered by the) piston, between the cylinder and the; \ | << crank ease, Then as the piston goes on the first stroke this gax is compressed and | then fired. This gives us @ combina. | tion of inlet and compression strokes | in one, The four-cycle, or more properly speaking, the four-stroke cycle mo- tor, requires four complete operations to produce one power stroke-inlet. compression, Pogo’ and exhaust, hence the name. In other words, a four- cycle motor must make two revolu- tions in order to produce one power stroke, The two-stroke cyele motor, on the other hand, does tho same thing in one revolution—inist and ¢ompros- exhaust in the other, H.

Thus its only reaction appeared in new building operations, and this la more apparent than real, because many millions of dollars have been put into war work which does not show on the records, Practically all of the post- poned Manhattan projects are of the steol-frame type, and they must be executed in the near future to pro- vide for urgent expansion of popula- ton and business, They offer a vast store of work when the war rush shall be over, Brooklyn follows with a $293,000,000 total in comparison with $377,585,000 jest yoar, Bales took $26,000,000, while $57,000,000 went into mortgage loans, $31,000,000 into construction, Sales of 1916 amounted to $266,685,000, loans to $74,100,000, building to $46,850,000, QUEENS WITH $133,000,000 PA: THE BRONX.
