(4) Good atomisation to assist distribution.

(5) Economy because with diffuser type jet with accelerating well and suction valve it would not have to be set over rich to give acceleration.

As far as we are aware this principle of operation has not previously been employed and regarding it as a development of the original Phantom carburetter we suggest that it may be worth protecting in case at future date we may wish to use similar or modified operation.
