| contd :- -2- We should like to try something rather better designed on these lines as it appears to prevent a poor gland from leaking. A. {Mr Adams} Face 'V' on rotor fitting into 'V' notch on pump casing. Spring pushing rotor up to 'V' groove. Water leaks past the outside of bush into cavity A. {Mr Adams} We suggest that this bush is coated with Heldite before being pressed in, or covered with boiled oil after fixing to prevent this seepage.
