Cadillac Achievement.

Cadillac engineers have overcome the
common fault of carburetors being
unable 70 supply enough gasoline, for
example when you step suddenly on
your foot throttle and the speed Of the
car does not instantly increase.
When the throttle is opened quickly
the tendency Is for the mixture to be-
come lean. for the reason that the gaso-
line, because of its greater density; Is
not drawn into the mixing chamber as
easily and as rapidly as the air.
The device evolved by the Cadillac en-
gineers is q slkillful application Of the
plunger pump principle. In this case,
however. the action is confined to only
one stroke Of the plunger. When the
throttle is suddenly opened the plunger
automatically accelerates the supply o:
gasoline through the spray nozzle. there
by providing a correct explosive mixture
for quick acceleration. and the getaway
is instantaneous.
