Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer}/T10/F281116. X.601. Re Model "K" Lodge Sparking Plugs. Replying to your memo Wd{Mr Wood/Mr Whitehead}/W6/E251116, we are quite agreeable to Lodge plugs being ordered up with the spark gap .015" instead of .020" as hitherto. We do not think, however, that Mr.Clark should have put these instructions through without consulting us. If this is done, in some instances a good deal of confusion may be caused. EP.{G.
