TECALEMIT OIL FILTER - BENTLEY & 25/30. In view of what you said this morning, and the fact that 6.B.IV in France and 1.B.IV in England are having trouble through loss of oil pressure when braking, we are withdrawing the standardisation sheet for the external oil filter until further experimental work has been done.
