6001b Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Wst.17/JH. 27th May, 1937. Messrs. K.L.G.Sparking Plugs Ltd., Putney Vale, London.S.W.15. Dear Sirs, With reference to the 6 plugs type FE.30X modified recently received from you we consider these are inadequate for test purposes and at least 48 plugs are necessary. Would you please let us have the balance as quickly as possible. We should also like you to send us a dozen FLB.30X similarly modified at the same time. These plugs must be considered as exceptionally urgent in view of the serious point burning experienced on our cars. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
