New Meter Reveals Just

Scientific American. A newly per­
fected meter will promptly tell you
exactly how to adjust the needle
valve to give the most efficient
"mixture."
More accurate than the most ex­
perienced rejialr man. this air-fuel
meter registers with scientific ex-
act ness Just how much too rich or
too lean the carburetor mixture Is.
Of course, the average automobile
owner will hardly have sufficient
use for such an Instrument to
bother about tt. but operators of
fleets of trucks are already finding
that exact adjustment of carburet­
ors of their motors gives them ap­
preciable savings In their Urge
fuel bills.
The new meter, developed In
Newark. .V J.. Is operated by pass­
ing a portion of the exhaust gas
through the meter after the motor
has warmed up. When this exhaust
gas reaches the analysis cell of the
Instrument, a pointer Is deflected
over a wide scale to Indicate the
exact nature of the mixture.
The meter operates on the Wheat­
stone bridge principle, comparing
the thermal conductivity of the ex-
haust gas and the air-fuel ratio of
the carburetor. The scale of the
meter Is calibrated directly In
poun<ls of air per pounds of gaso­
line burned.
