DEFINITION

Classification: 123/406.31

Alcohol concentration responsive:

(under subclass 406.3) Subject matter wherein the regulating means to vary spark ignition timing is additionally responsive to a signal indicative of the relative proportion of a colorless, volatile, flammable liquid, produced by yeast fermentation of carbohydrates or, synthetically, by hydration of ethylene (e.g., C2H5OH) (i.e., alcohol) per unit of volume of combustible material.
