-2- contd. The performance was tried with the water temperature first at 80°C and secondly at 100°C. A high speed test of the ignition was also carried out at 8 volts with a weak mixture and with the hand lever fully retarded without missing. Further tests to confirm the above will be made on a 40/50 H.P. chassis. 17.7.29. The above tests have been repeated on ignition coil L.S.3 on chassis 14-EX, and satisfactoriness of operation confirmed. | ||
