Hancock - Head Chateauroux}1/LG31.8.27. PHANTOM CARBURETTER. Improved bearing surface for diaphragm link. E.76048 - Nozzle. E.76049 - Connecting Rod. E.72176 - Pin. This was fitted to 12-EX 4.4.27 and has been in constant use for 9000 miles. The condition of the bearing surfaces is still good. We should recommend that the scheme be incorporated in the present standard carburetters. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} | ||
