Mr. Robotham,
Rolls Royce Ltd.,
Derby, England.

Dear Mr. Robotham:

RE FUEL FEED

I have been meaning for some time to send you attached two prints of the vacuum pump produced by Stewart Warner to replace the AC fuel pump on the same flange.

Stewart Warner use this pump as a booster to supplement the vacuum at the feed-tank under full throttle conditions - (same scheme as Cadillac and I understand the "S.S.")

If you would like samples please let me know.

Very truly yours,
Maurice Olley
