A smealled spark knock is caused a side slap take: place in the end of

spark is advanced too far the explo-
sion takes place in the cylinder before
the piston reaches top center.

etically the spark should be con-

Asa

that at all engine speeds the full

force of the explosion will be deliv-
ered to the piston at the instant dead
center is passed. A charge of gas re-
quires a certain time to become fully
