| FROM R.{Sir Henry Royce} HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} R1/M14.8.28. ORIGINAL C. to BJ. ZENITH CARBURETTER. X2202 We are looking at an illustration of a Zenith carburetter. The model is 60.DJ. double carburetter, which appears to be right for about 500HP. Have you had this carburetter at all for examination? Apparently it would not freeze because it is heated with oil or water. We should like to know how this compares with our own for slow running, acceleration, and metering. R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
