The location Of the spark plug in the
cylinder has a great deal to do with the
amount OF power 10 be received from an
engine, For instance, in the r head type
Of motor II the spark plug is placed over
The intake valve the spark occurs At one
side OF tho combustion chamber and the
gas can burn In one direction only.
In order tn ignite the gases In the cylin-
der with greater rspidity the many users
Of the T head type Of motor have placed
two spark plugs, which ire simultaneously
and ignite from the two extreme ends Of
the combustion chamber, The designers
OF the Marmon Al six cylinder engine have
diverted from the usual method of placing
the spark plugs over The valv, and have
placed II In the centre OF the combustion
chamber This allows the fsme to spread
sequently complete the ignition OF the
charge quicker and give more power.
The placing of the spark plug in the
centre Of tho combustion chamber also
tends 10 keep the spark plug more free
from oil.
