Valve Timing

Valve timing on engines, to which these carburetors are fitted, allows good combustion to take place without destroying engine overrun braking to a significant extent. Therefore, no vacuum retard unit is needed to restore engine braking and no control valve is needed to give simultaneous operation of vacuum retard and by-pass valve.
