ABSTRACT:
An electric pump delivers water from an reservoir to a nozzle located in the air intake manifold of a diesel engine. The pumping capacity of the pump is adjustable by varying the resistance of a variable resistor in series with the pump so that the system can be used with various engines requiring different amounts of water. Several safety switches are provided to prevent water from being pumped unless the engine is running at a predetermined speed, a predetermined oil pressure is reached and the throttle is depressed. An indicator light indicates when the water reservoir is empty and needs refilling.
