Packard engineers unveil fuelizer device for Twin Six autos
Packard announces a new fuelizer that automates heat addition to the carburetion process, converting the fuel mixture into a dry vapor to improve efficiency and reduce carbonization. The small, no-move-part device sits in the intake and ignites automatically, aiming to revolutionize fueling for Twin Six models and future engines.

Chains and how they aid tires on slippery roads
A historical note explains tire chains prevent damage and improve traction on wet or icy surfaces. It contrasts old cross-chain designs that harmed tires with creeping chains that protect tread and carcass, reducing skid damage as wheels spin for traction.
Gasoline needs modern carburetors for Midwest grade fuel
The current gasoline, labeled mid west 56 to 60 gravity, is partly straight run from a paraffin base and partly cracked, with a high kerosene content. Kerosene elements do not evaporate in the intake and instead run along walls, causing leaky carburetors. Motorists should use careful dash control, feed minimal gasoline to hot cylinders, and ensure manifolds stay hot with exhaust or water heat and a radiator cover to prevent lubrication issues and carbon buildup.
