I will arrange to have the car sent to Cricklewood any morning next week, if you will please let me know which day suits you best.
You will understand, of course, that there is no "judder" at present, i.e. since the brakes were doped.

In regard to the air valve of the carburettor, as a matter of fact I had not quite given instructions that it should not be touched as I was not quite certain what you wanted done in this respect. There has been no trouble with it, however, but it has been wiped over with a rag once a week.
In future we will not clean it at all, and let you know the result.
