RESULTS of tests on several motor cars reported in his paper, Mr. MacCoull comments, “make one wonder if it is economically necessary for a car to be completely free from knock at all times.” Use of a spark retarded slightly from that required for optimum power, he found, resulted in a trivial power loss, but appreciably lowered the octane requirement.In additional tests on a single-cylinder CFR engine, where power output and various temperatures were studied, as the compression was raised above the critical compression ratio, the author found that:
