vent Injury from back firing. The lat

the car. the starter or the driver can
possibly suffer injury.
The starter receives its power from

upon a button on the floor Of the driv-

pressure when the engine is started.
Il This discngagcs the gear and leaves

Is running at high speed no injury TO

the field magnets are excited almost TO
