' \ | The Managing Director, The Tourist Motor Co., i 9 Dear Sir, ■ ' '' ' ; ' ' , |.. has to thank you for. yours of-'the Ist inst. and the' I . prompt manner in which this Carburettor- was "supplied. ■. i t . As a preliminary report, wo.tell you-that the? Carburetter was -j S ' placed'oii the J.B.C. Car, a run of 7G' miles' being" made, including ;. j, | four stiff hills, and the amount of petrol consumed was 2 gallons ■ . 1 7 pints. ■ ' The extra speed noted- was really surprising, and 'lie power '- ■ | on the hills was a decided improvement. • - The previous running of ! . : ear witll — Carburetter Was.l 7 miles, to. the gallon; the jet wast 1 5 then made smaller, with tlie lesult of 19J miles to the gallon. This ■ } .was the best that the writer could obtain. On the "Master" it : |-. 6 works out at-practically 251. miles to the gallo'n, .increase of 6 milesj | per gallon. Buring the run. we found that on half acceleration the- ' i I*• ' lever control was out down to Iho leanest mixture possible, and it' , • j * is quite probable I hat wo could do with a smaller' distributor, and.. j I would get mora economical running still. .The one at preseut in the ..- j : : carburetter is ifiarked "S." We would bo pleased'if you would for- '; 5 ward another—we do r.ot Icnow which, way the sizes run, whether it 8 would be an "R" or a "T," as there is tio.note niade.tf this in..the 1 ' 1 instructions.

S xus for the Sunbeam tar showed an-increase of-11-miles per gallon, . • • 1 v § 1 with considerably more lower on the hills tlia'i tho previous car-. ... . j ; ' buretter fitted to this oar.
