Attached is some correspondence relating to an obsolete petrol pump which was fitted to a customer's car quite recently by Lillie Hall. We shall be glad if you will take steps to warn Depots that stock pumps should be inspected to ensure that they are up-to-date, and on no account should obsolete pumps be utilised as they are bound to give trouble.
