R.R 235 B (200 T) (S F.{Mr Friese} 673, 22-5-19) C 2376 EH. from BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} c. EP.{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} X.1918 l. BY6/P29.10.19. CHASSIS - IGNITION WIRING & PLUGS. I am sending you herewith 11 K.L.G. plugs which were returned at my request from Mr Bellringer in the London Repair Depot. The plugs in question have all failed. I would like you to test these, as to whether the failure is an actual breakdown through the micas, or a temporary one, due to oiling up which can be remedied by means of the cleaning attachment.
