Does anyone know what is meant by an "electron crankcase"? Omnedon ( talk) 13:58, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
How many of these are supposed to have been made? It's not obvious from the article as it stands that the number was greater than zero - 100-65-35 = 0. 86.181.177.63 ( talk) 07:54, 24 February 2012 (UTC)
One or two camshafts? A four valve head would be unusual with a single cam. Andy Dingley ( talk) 09:32, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
Four valves with one cam is unusual? The legendary, vaunted Rolls-Royce Merlin has a single camshaft and four valves per cylinder. At least SOME of them do. I believe Merlins with the "wedge head" have only 2 valves per cylinder. But my source for that is Wikipedia so I could easily be wrong. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.234.100.60 ( talk) 10:28, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
Regarding this edit
The large number of citation tags in the second paragraph of "Reception" are not strictly necessary, as the citation tag at the end of the paragraph covers the whole paragraph. I left them alone because I don't really mind citation tag overkill, and because the section does have references, making the "unreferenced section" tag inapplicable. Sincerely, SamBlob ( talk) 01:44, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
I would change all of these if I could. In fact I have changed most, if not all, of these already. However, my changes keep being reverted, and I am close to violating WP:3RR. I therefore appeal to consensus, that other editors may judge the situation and either explain why these should be as they are or change them to what they should be.

Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to one external link on
Bentley 8 Litre. Please take a moment to review
my edit. You may add {{
cbignore}}
after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{
nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}}
to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{
Sourcecheck}}
).

I attemped to correct a very obvious incorrect spelling under the "Chassis" section where some automobile expert used "castor" instead of "caster". I also attempted to remove "castor action" entirely since Deere & Company aka John Deere trademarks "CasterAction" and "Caster/Action" for its MFWD front axles on many of its farm tractors and has since the early 1980s. Unless Bentley somehow copied Deere's system, which uses a high degree of "kingpin inclination" so that the wheels lean dramatically when steered in order to reduce turning diameter/radius, its a safe bet Bentley 8 Liters do not have "caster action", much less "castor action", regardless of the "reliable source" referenced. I'm not playing the edit war game and haven't for quite some time. I put a link to proof of what I said right in one of my edit summaries and it was still reverted. Children run Wikipedia these days and there are no parents around to provide consequences, so I'll simply contact Deere & Company about a potential trademark violation and let their lawyers deal with it. Years ago I got an internet tractor forum "contributor" who was fond of posting scanned pages and schematics from Deere service manuals online shut down, so I know how seriously Deere takes its intellectual property. So good luck to old Andy. He may need it.10:49, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
