SCENTED MOTOR GASES
It is now possible to doctor motor fuel so as to eliminate the odour of exhaust gases. The process is covered in a recent patent which claims that an agreeable smell cair be imparted to the exhaust gases of internal combustion engines using any desired type of fuel bv adding small amounts, four grams or less per gallon, of an artificial musk compound. It has the property of resisting combustion under the conditions prevailing in internal-combustion engines, and is adapted to impart to the exhaust gases a pleasant odour which enables the pungent smell of the half burned oil to be modified.
