''i .'" - | 'As a'Cpreliminary report,'we tell yoii that the Carburetter' was > j placed on the J.B.C. Cari a run.of 76 ■;miles being made, including \ four stiff hills, and the amount of petrol consumed was '2' galliris l 7 pints. The extra speed noted was really surprising.'and the power « ._on the hills was a. decided .improvement.. The previous-'running of | oar.witlj Carburetter was 17 miles'to the gallon; the jet was • \ then-.inride smaller, with the result of- miles to the gallon. This . was the best that the writer could obtain.---On the "Master" -it < • works'out: at practically-25i miles.to the gallon, increase'of 6 miles . j per gallon. During, the run we found that on half acceleration the | -.-lever, control was 'put "down >to.the leanest mixture possible, and it, ,• is quite probable lhat.we could.-.do with, a smaller distributor,, and would get more economical' Tunning still. The one at present in the icarburebter is marked "S." .We would be pleased if you would for- | -ward another—we do not know which way the-sizes run, whether it | ' would be an "%," or a "T," as there is *o' note made' o-f this' in the ■2 -.-- instructions. ' ■ >1 ,• We would also, like to.fay that Jthe "Master.Carburetter" you sent •' S " us-for the Sunbeam car showed-an increase of- It miles per" gallon, . . ' with considerably) more lower on the hills than tho previous car•jl buretter fitted to this oar. This is an astounding -result. ' ! Tours faithfully, ■| '. v ■'■■ •;. (Signed) H. GABBIITT, ;( .
