Summary:

An investigation was conducted to obtain fuel-consumption curves for a single-cylinder engine with a Wright 1820-G and a Pratt and Whitney 1340-H cylinder at varyngs speeds, manifold pressures, and air-fuel ratios. The 1340-H cylinder was tested at speeds from 1,200 to 2,400 r.p.m. and at manifold pressures from 21 to 38 inches of mercury absolute. Less extensive tests were made of the 1820-G cylinder.
