| 48685 To BY. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} FROM E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} C. to BY. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} HS. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} E2/M6.7.26. EAC.7. CARBURETTER MIXTURE CONTROL. -X.7080. X7240 We send you herewith drawing LeC. 2266. giving a scheme for the mixture control to suit LeC.2262. The object of this scheme is to reverse the direction of motion of the mixture control to suit the revision of the ignition controls made for EAC.7. With regard to Mr.Royce's car 7.EX. the item referred to on ignition in his memo R3/M2726., is the application of the special ignition differential shewn on LeC 2262. This involves an alteration in length to the external lever on the servo, so as to reduce the travel of the ignition advance as affected by the governor. E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
