[ROVERNET - UK] Calling Rovernet Brain trust!!!

[Kent Kinard]

Hi Ben,
I'm glad the situation is improving.  All the discussion has been very 
useful.  The 110 must have an HD8 since it shares the air intake casting 
with the Mk.II and MkIII.   I wonder, since it is mostly a short stroke 
Mk. II engine, if it also has the enconmizer feature on it's carb?  
Someone with a 110 please comment.

Roverly,
Kent K.
