Friction clutches are used by which the driving-shaft and the axles can be connected or disconnected at the will of the driver, so that the vehicle can stand while the motor is running; friction clutches are used also to throw in gears of different sizes to increase or decrease the speed of the vehicle, as well as to drive backward.

To keep a practically continuous forward movement on the driving-shaft, many motors are made with four cylinders, the piston of each being connected with the crank-shaft at a different angle, and each cylinder doing a different part of the work; for example, while No. 1 cylinder is doing the work from the force of the explosion, No. 2 is compressing,

Others are kept cool by a revolving fan geared to the driving-shaft, which blows on the cylinders; while still others -- small motors used on motor bicycles, generally -- have wide ridges or projections on the outside of the cylinders to catch the wind as the machine rushes along.
