Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is an early 20th-century guide to the mechanics of the gasoline motor, around at the time when this new technology was in its relative infancy. Written for a general audience, it delves into topics still relevant to the vehicles of today, such as the types of motors, their valves, bearings, lubrication, cooling, and more. The author explores both two and four-cycle engine types as well as valve mechanisms and power plant design, describing everything from poppet valves, sleeve valves, horizontal opposed engines, and V-shaped motors. The book also examines the best practices for maintaining a motor and goes into detail on timing, valve adjustment, and engine bearing inspection. Whether you're a student of automotive history, a restoration enthusiast, or simply someone with a lust for the internal combustion engine, this book offers a comprehensive look at the evolution of the automobile as well as the mechanics that make it run.
