AB.46. -2- Contd.

As there is generally a slight amount of leakage in practical working, and as the distributor jump gap would not appear to be useful in overcoming it, an auxiliary gap might be tried at the sparking plug, and could be compared with the amplokon for operation on a low voltage, and for dealing with misfiring.
