Amongst other things the initial ignition advance is delayed as the load does not start to lift until gap G; has attained measureable dimensions. (b) Variation with speed. This can almost be accounted for by the increase in oil pressure with speed. Thus in a certain case [Table Begin] R.P.M. | Load lifted. max. | Oil Pressure. | % difference.
