Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/JBD.{John B. Dixon - Fuel Systems}12/JH.11.5.37.

Will you please fit an additional petrol pipe outside the frame on 32-EX. This pipe should go from the pump on the dash straight down through the bonnet rest angle along the outside of the frame and cross under the frame behind the front shackle of the O.S. rear spring and then follow the existing pipe.

The existing pipe and pump in the frame to be left as they are and coupled up to the tank.

This is to enable us to standardise a similar scheme if required.
