Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}....from C.

A friend of mine who runs an Hispano Suissa and who has heard of certain petrol pump troubles we have had, says that the petrol pump on his Hispano Suissa, which is some six years old, has never given any trouble. He says the pump is the Autoflux.

Do you know of this pump?
If not I could send you his spare, which he tells me he has not had occasion to use, and which he has sent along to me in case you would like to see it.

C.
