| Distributor Propeller shaft To Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from BJ. BJ13/H23.9.25. Re 20 HP. "India(Production 20 HP. with 4-speed box and Front Wheel Brakes)": 10,000 Miles Test. Will you kindly let us know if there were any parts on this car which will not be, or are not now being delivered as standard. Also, whether the lubrication and lubricating oil which we advise in our Instruction Book was used during this test, and if not, in what way it differed. If there were any alterations either to design or lubrication, are they at all likely to make any difference to the running of the car? B.J. | ||
