Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /JBD. {John B. Dixon - Fuel Systems} 9/JH.7.4.37.

I thank you for details of the G.5 petrol pump failures at Kingsbury & Cricklewood. We are particularly interested in leaking diaphragms and would be glad if you would give me details of mileage in these cases. I understand there has been a case of a defective petrol pump switch on a customers car at Cricklewood and would be glad if you could obtain details and forward me the offending switch.
