Faulty A.T. Rev Counter off car 7.B.V.

The standard A.T. rev-counter No.X.155 has been removed from car 7.B.V. and handed to us with the complaint that the pointer sticks at scale reading 25. There appears to be something loose inside the instrument which catches the pointer when the instrument is in the normal position.

Will you please arrange for the return of this instrument for examination and repair.
