| Messrs. Rolls-Royce, Ltd., Date 6. 7. 28. Page 3. and modification, so that you may not have a recurrence of the trouble. The writer finds that, generally speaking, it is best to use a Motor hand tyre pump with the metallic connection cut off for drying air lines. This is the arrangement which we use in our own Service Shop here. We think that the capacity of a Cycle tyre pump would be on the small side. We are considering carefully the other questions discussed, and will communicate with you accordingly as promised. Yours faithfully. H.M. HOBSON, LTD., T.P. Searight Joint Managing Director. | ||
