regardless of any strain that is put on
the chassis. The case which carries
them Is a unit.
The parts are carefully lined VI
when the power plant is assembled. and
the alignment cannot be affected by
any road strain whatever.
The power of a motor depends on the
amount of explosive mixture that gets
into the cylinders. Big motors have
more power than little ones. They
hold more gas.
Powerful Motor-NOt Bigs Efacient.
But 1t Is the gas hat counts. The
jackson designers have developed a
powerful motor-not big, but efficient.
They utilize every inch of cylinder
space-get gas into 1t.
Then, too, the valves have a good
deal to do with It. The gas in any
motor is drawn into the cylinder by
the suction of the piston as 1t travels
downward on Its intake stroke.
In jackson motors, on the way from
the carburetor to the cylinder, the gas
doesn't have to travel a crooked route.
It gets there-straight and fast.
That's why the Jackson go has
just as muCH power tHo ooSohu AV,'0O
miles as the first.
