we give .1.--Aa full description of the New Lancet II made by Dennis Bros., Ltd., Guildford. We are also permitted to announce that at the forthcoming Show another new model will make its first appearance. This is to be a 4tonner weighing under 21 tons and embodying certain striking features.
Apart from these, the outstanding Dennis developments of the past few months are the production of the Dennis-Lanova low-pressure oil engine, and the addition to its range of bodywork equipment of a moving floor.
A description of the former, together with a report of its performance on the road, was published in our issue dated September 20 last. It develops 82 b.h.p. at 1,800 r.p.m., having a capacity of 6.5 litres, and a prominent characteristic is its quiet and vibrationless running throughout the speed range.
Features of the cylinder-head design are an air cell and horizontal injector set diametrically opposite one another and discharging, as it were, between two circular combustion chambers, and the use of a shrouded heater plug. An interesting constructional feature is the method of splitting the big-end of the connecting rod obliquely so that it can pass through the cylinder.
