SPECTRE(Codename for Phantom III) CARBURETTERS.

We send you herewith a print of LeC 4712 showing an external float chamber vent to the balance chamber in the air silencer for the carburettors of the above engine.

We should be pleased if these vent pipes could be fitted to the car, 2 S I, which is shortly going to France.

It should be noted that the only new parts required with the exception of the pipe and fittings, are new float chamber lids.
