| Wor {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} /EH1/L13314. (contd). on road (it does happen now occasionally) which is a more serious complaint because it upsets the whole running of the car and it is difficult to drop on what is the matter. I suggest that we should consider some sort of lock for the air valve, it is only very rarely that it is necessary to screw the air valve as a whole out, we can clean it by taking off the top cover and taking out the piston I think we could put a wire locking ring on it and do away with the washer. | ||
