Single Stromberg Carburetors - Spitfire Mark III

Breakage of carburetor and/or carburetor mounting bolts can occur where a foul condition between the right hand inner wheel arch and the air cleaner exists. This condition is aggravated when the hood assembly is supported during lifting or lowering on the driver's side.

Please arrange to inspect and adjust by simply bending the inner valance to ensure that it has adequate clearance between air cleaner and the attachment bolt heads.

The operation involves but a few seconds and arrangements should be made to immediately include this on all predelivery and subsequent services.
