PEREGRINEExperimental Bentley car never produced / Aero Engine CARBURETTER. Re. larger PeregrineExperimental Bentley car never produced / Aero Engine Carburetter throttle body was being produced to enable us to use the J.2 carburetter on PeregrineExperimental Bentley car never produced / Aero Engine, we should like the throttle spindle bushes machining flush with the bore and a perfectly round throttle valve fitting as this arrangement gives a better fitting throttle and is a definite aid to starting and slow running. We should like this modification carrying out on all future PeregrineExperimental Bentley car never produced / Aero Engine carburetters. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /R.Matthews. | ||
