| ENGINE. The engine gave no trouble in starting up. slight rattle from dynamo drive; engine gears sing. Bad water leak from water pump gland. With carburation set three notches weak luffing up could be produced when using gears. In normal position there was no sign. The second gear came out of mesh whilst running lightly on this gear. SPRINGING. Up to speeds of 60 mph. the minimum load is required to obtain the best possible springing, but this is too hard. Above 60 mph. the maximum position is required to prevent pitching and obtain stability. BRAKES. Improved after attention to oily brakes. G.W.H. | ||
