STROMBERG CARBURETTERS. X3932

The expert from Strombergs could not shew us any reasonably good results with their carburetters on F.10.

They are writing to the factory in the U.S.A. and getting their recommendations.

When we are able to fit it in, we propose letting the Claudel people have another go with their AVT-70 type carb. with the annular diffusers. We can then compare their results with our own.
