| 6001. Experimental Dept. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/RC.{R. Childs}16/MH.{M. Huckerby} 31st. August 1938. KLG. Sparking Plugs Ltd., Putney Vale, LONDON, S.W.15. For the attention of Major C.M.Carrington. Dear Sirs, Your 1938 Sparking Plug Chart recommends the FE.30.X type plug for use on the 3 1/2-litre Bentley. This is incorrect: we have always recommended the FLB.30.X. type for this car. At the moment, we only recommend the FE.30.X type for use in the "Phantom". Will you please arrange for this to be rectified. Yours faithfully, for ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
