Bailey - Chief Engineer} ----------------------- Re: 25/30 HP. - Carburetters. There are two cars in K.{Mr Kilner} today with the drain ball valve stuck up. One is gummed up, whilst the other is so carboned up that it will not move either way. It would appear that the remote position is the one to go for.
