I,m still looking for definitive info. on this but picked up this from wikipedia: 'Another factor in the Hurricane's performance was the Merlin engine that also powered the Supermarine Spitfire, especially after the introduction of Miss Shilling's orifice. This was a simple device fitted to the engine's carburettors to reduce the effects of fuel starvation during negative-g manoeuvres and inverted flight – a problem which would be fully addressed during 1943 with the introduction of fuel injection.'
