Description: |
| Claim:
In a four-cycle petroleum-engine, the combination with the cylinder and piston, of a vaporizer and a suction or storage chamber connected therewith, a distribution-valve controlling the flow of petroleum to the engine, a gas-valve controlling the passage of vapor to the cylinder means whereby in the normal action of the engine the said gas-valve will be held open during the suction-stroke and during a portion of the compression-stroke, and means whereby excessive speed of the engine will cause said gas and distribution valves to remain closed during the entire cycle of movement. |
