I am not very pleased with this. Is it not better to feed the induction pipe thus - because the petrol clinging to the wall of the bend would not be so liable to fall into the two nearest gas passages. I know I asked for the neatest possible scheme, and I believe thought the gas passages A.{Mr Adams} were too long. We should now go back to long studs and present rocker length. (1) | ||
