neither does it have a crank-

it uses about one-third the
number of parts of a piston
engine, is one-half the weight
of the piston power plant,
and develops-the horsepower
of a piston engine twice its
size.
Reasonable , fuel economy
(on unleaded, low-octane

the-art is perfected; that life
should be. extended,
After you've joined the ro-
tary club you'll be pleasantly
surprised to learn that for all,
its differences, the rotary still"
uses the same carburetor,
wiring, tubing, alternator, ig-
nition system, etc. as the pis-
ton engine. The same tools
are used to take it apart and
put it back together again.
And there's no problem
having to re-educate an en-
tire service and supply force.
Any competent mechanic
should be able to service the
rotary after a week or two
of instruction.,

The Automotive Informa-

the major segments of the
'motor vehicle and motor ve-
hicle service inclUstries, for
several months has been
gathering data about cur-

future technology and serv-
ice refinements planned by
the industry. A few innova-

A braking system which

stop.
A device to aid in steering
which automatically com-
pensates for wind gusts and
chuck holes, adapted from
our space guidance systems.
A unit on the dashboard
which monitors tire pressure
while driving, activating a
warning light or buzzer when
the pressure on any tire falls
below a prescribed level. One
study shows that a tire un-
der-inflated by nine pounds
of pressure loses 52% of its
life. In 1970, according to the

These are but a few of the
more sophisticated innova-
tions which may be available
on the vehicle yo'u buy in the
near future.
A man who has stayed for
"one too many" weaves
through the bar door, and
lurches into his parked car.
He's heading home, or so he
thinks. But in order to start
the car he must first correct:
ly punch up his personal five-
digit identification number
on a small dashboard com-
puter.
If successful, for a two-
second interval another set
of numbers totally foreign to
him appears which he must
memorize and duplicate on •
the computer: He has three
chances at the second test.
Correct answers will activate
the ignition system.
He can then start the car
by pushing another button
which also activates the com-
puter into a rapid series of
pre-driving diagnostic tests
of vital operating systems,
reporting any signs of trou-
ble: If unsuccessful, with ei-
ther test, no one can start
the car for at least .one hour.
Far fetched? Not at all.
The technology is here. The
"psychological tester" de-
signed to prevent drunk driv-
ers from starting their auto-
mobiles and to rkduce the
approximately one million
vehicles stolen annually is
one of many new systems in
various development stages
by motor vehicle and vehicle
component system manufac-
turers.
And one of the most im-
portant industry products is
the new breed of service tech-
nicians equipped with the
ability to maintain today's
sophisticated power systems
and those earns'arked for fu-
ture vehicles.
To supply this.continnuing
need, Vehicle and component
manufacturers are re-train-
ing tens of thousands of ex-
perienced technicians every
year. The vocational schools,
and colleges are graduating '
thousands of young men an-
nually who will become to-
morrow's technicians.
And as the 'number of .ve-
hicles on the road grows each
year, the induStry is helping
meet this service manpower
demand by working closely
with schools. at "career day"
assemblies, advising adminis-
trators and instructors on
new teaching procedures,
and providing industry spon-
sored schools.

Welcome to the rotary club
— the rotary club of Dr. Felix
Wankel, whore- revolutionary
new engine made its appear-
ance in Germany in 1956, and
is possibly going to be the
power plant for many auto-
mobiles in ten years.
The rotary-powered Maz-
da, made by Toyo Kogyo
Company in Hiroshima, Ja-
pan, has already made its
appearance in this country
with the RX2 sedan.
Experts in the automobile
industry say there is a real
possibility that domestic
nude rotary-engined cars
will be in the nation's show-
rooms on a limited basis by
1974 or 1975.
Sooner or later you may be
,driving — maybe even own-
ing — one of these remark-
able cars, so you'll want to
know a little about what
makes the engine go.
It's a gasoline-burning, in-
ternal-combustion engine
which uses rotary motion to
drive the wheels instead of
the up-and-down motion of
a piston engine. If you were
to take the cover off the top
of the rotary and look down
into it, you would see what
looks like a triangle turning
inside a chamber which is
shaped like a slightly flat-
tened circle,
Three Chambers
Each side of the triangle
blocks off an arc of the cir-
cular chamber to form three
smaller, crescent-shaped
chambers. As the triangle, or
rotor, turns, the positions of
the three crescent-shaped
chambers move around in-
side the large, circular cham
ber. The intake-compression-
ignition-expansion-exhaust
sequence occurs in the three
crescent-shaped chambers,
causing the rotor to spin.
The 'rotor, which turns not
on its axis but in a slightly
eccentric motion, is attached'
to a drive shaft to turn the
car's wheels,
The rotary motion is al-
mo-St vibrationless, and it
constitutes one of the rotary•
engine's most significant ad-
vantages over the piston en-
v gine.
Ignition in the rotary is
caused by two spark plugs.
Becau"se of the rotary's char-
acteristics, the plugs have to
function with a considerably
reduced cooling cycle, To do
the job properly an entirely
new plug was developed by
-chattipiOh -SpArk -Plit ' Mtn -
p any. It has two ground elec-
trodeS instead of the usual
one. In addition, a copper-
cored center electrode is used
to permit the better heat
cbnductivity demanded by .
• the rotary.
