| 82677 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}2/KT. April 13th 1933. Mr.Skinner, The S.U. Company, East Works, Bordesley Green Road, Adderley Park, B'ham. Dear Mr.Skinner, We have received the following report from our tester in France:- Petrol Pumps. We have received a new pump direct from the makers. This was fitted before the car went out. The noise from this pump is most objectionable. The new fibre rollers that have been fitted are too hard, and the rebounding noise consequently amplified. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
