Tim:
I knew I was a Sunbeam "genius" for discovering this rare UNLAT option. 
In fact, I think lots of my messing about with the Tiger has resulted in 
many other rare UNLAT items. Maybe I'll do my own catalog and charge 
lots of $$$ for it!!  I wish you hadn't given things away by revealing 
you can get UNLAT 91 at any hardware store for about 15 cents.

I didn't think about UNLAT 91's speed governor properties. I'll have to 
adjust it that way when I let top CAT dog Carrie drive the car.
