re Continental Phantom II.

In reviewing the air intake and breather pipe for the semi-expanding carburetters, we notice that there is no provision for a gauze between the crankcase breather and the air intake.

We think an easy way to deal with this is to fit a flame shield at the bottom of the air silencer.

We show this on LeC.3330 herewith.
