| 434 DAL/AH11.11.20 ----------- PACKHARD (Contd) The engine pulled very well at low speeds, and I could not distinguish any transmission knocks. The transmission as a whole was very quiet. The engine was very difficult to start, and this I understood to be a common fault with it. In this case it took nearly five minutes. It is fitted with a device called a "Fueliser" which is supposed to facilitate starting. DA. {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
