| +4037 Exptl: Dept: Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/AmL/LG. 16th. May 1928 Messrs. Benton & Stone Ltd., Birmingham. Dear Sirs, For the attention of E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Milner Esq. We attach herewith a blueprint of the Zenith Petrol Filter as promised. We suggest that you make up a filter which you think will meet our requirements following on our conversation yesterday and let us have it to try. At the same time we will, in parallel, attempt to modify the filter we have until we get satisfactory results, but we cannot see that we shall be able to eliminate the air lock with the petrol feed down the centre. Yours faithfully, | ||
