| 4. Page 50. Line 9. Is the word "forward" sufficiently explanatory? Page 51. Paragraph 8. "Adjustment of Cross Steering Joints." I suggest that the adjustment as described should always be made on full-lock in case of wear of the steering balls as cars get old. Page 56. Paragraph 7. I suggest the insertion of some words of caution as to seeing that the guide screw is in the slot of the needle valve before it is tightened up. Page 59. Pine 4. Why do we recommend flooding carburetters on these cars especially fitted with primers to be worked from the seat? Page 59. Line 17. Should not the strokes to be given to the pump when priming be described as "slow" strokes. Page 60. "Starting the Car" Is it not better to recommend that the gear lever be engaged before the side brakes are released? It has to be done on a hill, and should always be done therefore. Page 66. "Ignition" Do we not now recommend the use of both ignitions together ?. Page 72. Lines 4/7. I suggest that these lines would better follow the description of the regulator screw, which is given on the previous page, especially as the lines describe the oil pressure regulator screw in these words for the first time; the screw being referred to on the previous page merely by the letter "A".
