Replying to your letter of the 24 th.inst., we are afraid we have not had an opportunity to carry out tests on the sample of fuel which you sent to us. We are holding this in stock, however, and will advise you as to results as soon as we have an opportunity to do some tests on it. Yours faithfully, For Rolls-Royce Ltd. | ||
