When instructing and detailing in accordance with the standardisation sheet for dummy shutters and bypass thermostat water temp. control to Lec.3488 and Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 369 on Bentley k series, will you please modify the upper valve EB.680 to have a .092 bleed hole instead of the two larger ones shown on the drawing. This will bring it in line with the scheme which ran 15,000 miles.
