The problems of efficient fuel consumption in the automobile engine. Laboratory tests demonstrate complete and incomplete combustion of carbon; the influence of engine design on combustion efficiency; efficient burning through atomisation of fuel; design of the valve-in-head for maximum combustion and minimum power wastage; movement of the fuel mixture; removal of gases and control of the fuel mixture.
