DU PONT FUEL TEST FLEET:
The instrument panel of the test cars is designed to blend with the original dashboard. The pushbuttons for venting, for tank fuel, and for reference and test fuels are in line on the lower part of the panel. Above them are red warning lights which indicate the fuel being used. To the left of the buttons is the exhaust pressure indicator. From left to right in the upper portion of the panel are intake vacuum, engine speed, spark advance indicators, and a temperature selector dial and temperature indicator. On the floor of the car can be seen the window through which flywheel calibrations are read and the operating handle which controls spark advance settings.
