X.4307 RE 40/50 OBSOLETE CARBURETTER. E.2691 - LOW SPEED JET SPINDLE IN STAINLESS STEEL. With reference to Mr Royce's request for the Low Speed Jet Spindle E.2691 to be made in Stainless Steel instead of Mild Steel, we find that all these parts are made and assembled with the Valve U.1360 and Guide E.1744B for the "O" Series Chassis. The Spindles are also made for "P" Series but not yet assembled with the Valve and Guide. BY {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} /Shn. I think we should use up all we have made and have no scrap.
