The publication examines historical claims surrounding extremely high-mileage carburetors and fuel-vapor systems, including the famous Pogue carburetor, along with other experimental carburetor and fuel systems.
The material includes technical discussions, mileage claims, patent information, diagrams and drawings of various carburetor and fuel-vapor systems. Among the material shown is information relating to inventor Joseph H. Baldwin and U.S. Patent No. 3,630,698, as well as discussions of Pogue and other high-mileage carburetor designs.
The 1982 update is an important feature of this particular example because the publication itself states that the update supersedes all previous updates and revisions.
