| acceleration. Steering is very good for absence of shocks. but stability is not good. On these roads one does not know when the car is going to dive next. Oil pump is noisy. when hot. oil pressure fails readily after braking. Springing is very good about the best we have had for all conditions Brakes have remained very fair Water Losses This is serious. One gallon lost in 160 miles. being thrown out at high speed just too efficient at these speeds Near side wing still flaps often tightening all nuts up Radiator very steady Off side wing steady. Therefore suspect weak wing stays Dynamo output useless. 4 amp maximum will not maintain charge with side tail, instrument board ignition (not head lamp on) G.H. Alcock | ||
