To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} +2677 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Bwg.{J. C. Bowring}19/KW. 8.3.35. SpectreCodename for Phantom III 3. On the above car we should like the Fuel Pump mounted on rubber and totally isolated from the dashboard. We suggest that the mounting be of similar shape to the rubber used to carry the screen wiper motor, with a Durometer hardness of approx. 50. Will you please include in this scheme a flexible pipe from fuel pump to filter. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Bwg.{J. C. Bowring} | ||
