A Depot Sheet should be instructed informing the Depots to test for tightness of the screw on the float chamber which is a bearing for the float spindle. We have had a case on a new car when it became loose and lost, putting the float out of action. On future cars a locking device will be fitted, new screws can be supplied to Depots if needed.
