| W/N - Br/R.{Sir Henry Royce} 308 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/FD.{Frank Dodd - Bodies}9/JH.29.3.38. re Phantom III Carburettor. We are despatching today under separate cover 1 aluminium taper packing. 2 Cooperite joint washers. 4 taper steel washers. These are for use on the Phantom III carburettor the owner of which complains of difficult starting after standing on an incline. When the taper wedge is fitted please see that the main jets are .058, we mention this, not knowing whether this is an early Phantom III, or whether it is running on weaker jets. The steel washers are used to bring the holding down nuts square. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/FD.{Frank Dodd - Bodies} | ||
