| P.1 R.C. from hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}2/KT.22.9.32. PEREGRINE. This is to confirm that what we should like done to this car is, as as follows. (1) Fit up the Delco distributor such that the hand control rotates this, but so that the R.R. automatic advance is retained. This will necessitate making solid the Delco automatic advance. (2) Fit up the clutch with softer rubbers modified as per attached sketch. (3) Attend to noisy clutch thrust race. (4) Clean the front brakes of oil, and if possible correct the leak from the pivots. Examine rear brakes for oil. hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} | ||
