Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std 340 LA{L. A. Archer}25/T12.1.37 h/w Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/STD re. Phantom III Radiator Cap Valves. I give you below a copy of note I have received from JLE.{J. Lee Evans - Chassis Test Manager} Do you think there is anything in this, if so, would you kindly let me have your views. "The corrugated valve in the radiator cap gets very corroded and gives one the impression that after some months use will give trouble due to this. Perhaps you would like to look into this matter" Std. This seems serious. what do ours look like on 30EX. etc LA{L. A. Archer} Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
