GAS-DRIVEN CARS SOON
LITTLE ALTERATION I TO ENGINE NEEDED
Motor-cars and vehicles of all types driven by gas are likely to play an even greater part in road transport during this war than they did in the last when, after
petrol rationing began in the summer of 1918, cars with balloons of coal gas secured to their roofs were a not uncommon sight,
The Bradford municipal gas un- dertaking, it is reported, is to open eight Alling stations to supply motorists with coal gas as an al-
ternative to petrol.
Apart from a mixing valve in connection with the carburettor. little alteration has to be made to the ordinary engine.
CANVAS BAGS Containers for thes fuel are in the form of either canvas bags carried on the roof or metal cylin- ders in which the gas is charged
