I \ Dear Sir, jjjs ! The writer has to thank you for, yours of the lsib inst. and tlio • ft j prompt inafmer in which this Cafburettcr was supplied. ■ h l As a preliminary report, we tell you that tha Carburetter was 0 3 place;l on the J.B.C. Car, a run of 76 miles being made, including . B § four stiff hills, and tho i.momit of petrol consumed was 2 gallons 6| S 7 pints. The extra speed noted was really surprising, and tho power § 8 on the hills was a decided improvement. The previous running of fc s car wit)| Carburetter was 17 miles to the, gallon; tho jet was . § S then made smaller, with the losult of 19} miles to the gallon, This | S was the best that the writer could obtain. On the "Master" it I | works out at practically 25J miles to tho gallon, increase of 6 miles h a per gallon. During the run wo found that on iinlf acceleration the | i . lever control was put down to the leanest mixturo possible, and it I j is quite probable that'we could do with a smaller distributor, and is | ' would got more economical running still. The.one at present in tho 8 j carburetter is marked "S." We would be pleased if you wouls for- K | ward another—we do not knpw which way the sizes run, whether it • i § would he. an "R" or a "T," as there is note made tf this in the I s instructions. ' , | fj "We would also like to ray that the "Master Carburetter" you sent | 'jj us for tho Sunbeam car showed an increaso of 11 miles per gallon, | with considerably more jower on tho hills tha'i the previous car- g i • burette? fitted to this car. This is an astounding result. | a Your 3 faithfully, | | (Signed) H. GARBUTT, . | ! Manager, Booth, Macdonald and Co., litd., DUNE DIN.. >fj jj. AGENTS-- A, WHITAKER, Palmerston North. | G.
