speed is controlled by an inertia governor operating on the 

 fuel pump. 



An interesting detail of this engine is that the vaporiser is 

 so mounted as to allow for radial expansion. It is claimed that 

 .50 per cent, more power can be obtained than from an engine 

 of the same size cylinder working on the Otto 4-stroke 

 cycle. The cooling and lubricating arrangements have been 

 carefully thought out.

 by the makers to save one horse.
