Every engine is sold with a guarantee to replace any parts which fail through defective workmanship or material within a period of six months from the date of delivery.

The Lynx engine is the result of much experimental work. The following are the principal points which we claim makes it particularly suitable for use on an aeroplane.

COOLING.

The cooling is beyond criticism and the cylinder design is such that complete freedom from distortion is insured. Such things as broken piston rings or burnt valves are unknown.

OILING.

The oiling system is unique. The big ends of the connecting rods are not only lubricated but are cooled by a generous supply of oil, a small part of which only can get to the cylinders. The engine is particularly clean running and the oil consumption in flight is well under one gallon an hour.
