Excerpt from Automotive Magneto Ignition: Its Principle and Application With Special Reference to Aviation Engines

In compiling this work it has been the endeavor to provide a ready reference on the subject of magneto ignition as applied to automotive engines.

The rapid expansion of the practical application of electricity for the purpose of ignition renders it difficult to give a concise description of all details involved, consequently this work treats principally on the most efficient type of ignition, namely, the magneto.

There is no doubt that one of the influential factors in the development of aviation engines is due to the remarkable efficiency and reliability of modern magneto ignition. It has demonstrated that the super-power developed by the present day aviation engines is possible on account of the unfailing spark which nothing but a magneto can produce.

The superiority of magneto ignition in this field stands out prominently inasmuch as that one of the cardinal features is that it is entirely self-contained, requiring but a small amount of energy from the engine to produce a powerful spark.
