METHOD OF DETECTING THE PEESENCE OF CARBONMONOXIDE IN GAS ENGINE EXHAUST. As the efficiency of a gas engine depends largely on theexplosive mixture, it is a veryimportant matter to obtain thecorrect proportion of air. If carbon monoxide be presentin the exhaust, it is a sure proofthat complete combustion has notbeen realised, and, consequently,that the air supply is insufficient. Mr R. E.
