| X500W To RHC. {R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /CTS. {C. Trot Salt - Carburation} 25/WW.4.12.35. 21-G-IV. Recent tests with the Stromberg carburetter have proved that with a downdraught system of this design, some form of drain is absolutely essential in the induction pipe. Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 28 shows a scheme using the ball type of non-return valve. Will you please detail the necessary parts from this sketch, and have two sets of parts made. One set should be fitted to B-15 before it goes to France. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /C.T.Salt. | ||
