| X4079 To Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/TMW, from EFC. EFC8/T4.7.24. X.4079 - IGNITION COILS. We notice you have not yet replaced the stabalite coil on 7-GII with the Redmanol encased coil TR{Capt. F. W. Turner - Finance}3, referred to in our EFC1/T5.6.24. As it is intended to accumulate as much mileage as possible on these redmanol coils, it is unsatisfactory that a standard coil should be running on an experimental car, unless it is merely temporarily for purposes of comparison on the thrashing test. Will you therefore kindly make this change as our record has indicated all this time that TR{Capt. F. W. Turner - Finance}3 coil has been running on this chassis. EFC. | ||
