Radical Carburettor
A revolutionary design ; change in carburettors was ; introduced at the 1960 London ; Motor Show to combine the ; advantages of down-draught ’ and horizontal models. This carburettor, by Solex, ! is being fitted to the new ; Standard Vanguard 6. The new, integral semi-down-draught carburettor, i the 832P1H, embodies a big ; reduction in over-all height ' and the twin float chamber, 1 combined with short fuel pag-
sages, greatly reduces the effects of fuel surge and vibration, thus ensuring adequate petrol supply even at high tilt angles.
The emulsion block carries the main jet. pilot jet, pilot air bleed, main discharge veil, emulsion tube, air correction jet and acceleration pump and injector. The emulsion block is easily changeable to convert the carburettor from a pump to a non-pump type.
