Rolls Royce Ltd., DERBY RECEIVED 21 SEP 1932 Dear Sirs, Replying to your letter of the 19th inst., we are sorry to hear that you are having a little trouble with the Bentley Special jet control, and as we have not at the present time, any suitable size stock carburetters to send you in replacement, we are sending you a conversion set of our standard jet control, which we think will put the matter right. The only trouble with this is that you will have to braze into the bodies the two small steel jet lugs, these of course in the normal carburetter are cast on. Assuring you of our best attention at all times. Yours faithfully FOR THE S U CO. B.
