HASTINGS. : . I Dear Sir, .1 The writer lias (o thank you for yours of the Ist inst. and the _.~ 1 prompt mariner in which this Carburetter was supplied. ■"■■■ 1 As a preliminary report, we tell you that the Carburetter was ' | placed on the J.8.C.. Car, a run of 7G miles being made, including • 1 four stiff hills, and the tmount of petrol consumed was 2 gallons i 7 pints. _ The extra speed noted was really surprising, and tho power j on the hills vrae a decided improvement. Tho provious running of j car witljj — Carburetter was 17 miles to tho gallon; the jet was ( then made smaller,-with the leeult of 1!H miles to tho gallon. This , : was the be* that the writer could obtain. On tho "Master" it ■ works out at practically 25J miles to the gallon, increase of 6 miles - j per gallon./ During the run we found that on haJf acceleration the • [ lover control was put down to the leanest mixture possible, and it . ' is quite probable (hat we could do with a smaller distributor, iind ••' j ' would get more economical running still. The one at preseut in tho :I ■ carburetter is marked "S." We would be pleased if you wouW. for- . i ward another—Vβ do not know which way the eizes run, whether it ! would be an "E" or a "T," as there is to note made ti this in tho • '' instructions. ' ■ i Wβ would also like to fay that the "Muster' Carburetter" you sent | us for tho Sunbeam tar showed an increase of 11 miles ):er' gallon, I with considerably mpre j.ower on .tho hills tha-i tho pravious car- 1. bnretter fitted to this car. This is an astounding result. . ' -at Yours faithfully, . 1' (Signed) H. GABBUTT, . i 1 Manager, Booth, Macdonald and Co., Ltd., DUNEDIN. . j AGENTS-- A. WHITAKER, Palmerston North, ! G.
