bad road Brakes not always reliable - Cooling system absolutely O.K. Oil " do. do. Ignition " do. do - except. that I had last night to replace the 12 K.L.G. - F.12 Plugs. by other clean plugs - as the engine refused to pick up - It is quite O.K. to-day. I must state that I have very little opportunity of doing anything in the way of testing - for I am out early in the morning with people, & back late in the Garage - & I employ sometimes till 10 or even 12 p.m. for the cleaning & up-keep of the moving parts - filling up etc - I ignore the P.W.'s plant, but if I am left on my own for any length of time I will certainly carry out as many tests as possible in various directions - For the present I am acting more or less as a chauffeur. I remain Dear Sir's Yours faithfully S.H. Lausa | ||
