De3T Sir, The writer has to tlmnk you for yours of the Ist iust. . and the. .■: prompt manner in which this.Carburetter was supplied.. As a preliminary report, wo tell you that the Carburetter was. ."•.... placed on the J.B.C. Car, n run of 7G miles being made, including four stiff hills, find the amount of petrol consumed was 2 gallons 7 pints. The extra speed noted was really surprising, and '■lie power on the hills was a decided improvement. The previous running of car witl| Carburetter was 17 miles to the gallon; the jet was then made smaller, with the icsult of 19i miles to the gallon. This was the best that the writer could obtain. On the '"Master" it. works out at practically 251 miles to the gallon, increase of G miles per gallon. During the run wo found that on half acceleration the. " lover control was put down to tho leanest mixture possible, and it is quite probable that we ronld do with a smaller distributor, and would get more economical running still. The one at present in tho carburetter is marked "R." We would be pleased if you wouW forward another—we do not know which why the sizes run, whether it ! would be an "R" or a "T," as there is V) note made cf this in tlio instructions. •. 1 ' . We would also like to My that the "Master Carburetter" you sent. : lis.for the Sunbeam c.ar showed'an increase of 11 miles .per gallon, .. with considerably more rawer, on the hills than tho previous car-,! ." buretter fitted to this car.. This is an astounding result. Tours faithfully, ■■ ' (Signed) If. GARBTJTT, 1 , ■ • Manager, 1300 th,. Macdonald and Co., Ltd., DUNEDIN. '■■■! AGENTS-A. WHITAKER, Palmerston North. .... j G.
