Summary
Details

Ignition, Valve Timing and Automobile Electric Systems is a 1919 treatise on the subject of ignition engines and related devices written by John B. Rathbun (1881 - 1940). Within this volume, Rathbun outlines the principles and construction of various types of ignition devices in great detail, using step-by-step explanations and simple diagrams. This book will appeal to those with an interest in electrical engineering, and it is not to be missed by collectors of vintage literature of this ilk. Contents include: Ignition Principles , Modern Battery Systems , Magneto Principles , High Tension Magnetos , Single-Dual-Duplex--Independent--Two Point Magneto Systems , Representative High Tension Magnetos , Advancing Field type Magnetos , etc. Also includes complete Tables and Data on Valve Timing for a Great Number of American Automobiles - The Ford Ignition System and Its Adjustment - Trouble Chart for Ignition and Starting System Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of electrical engineering.
