| very effective this last 2 days. All adjustments are O.K and this morning I washed out the front brake drums with petrol, and it has made a considerable improvement. It rather points to oil-getting on the brake shoes, probably from the base of the pivot. No further complaints or criticisms from P.N. Mileage run today - 112 miles. Petrol used. - 70 litres.
