20 HP. CHASSIS. OIL PUMP.
-------------------------

The last scheme for lubricating oil pump bearings from the pressure side of oil pump, through a filter so as to ensure a constant stream of clean oil passing inwards through the bearings, is a good job, and should be instructed experimentally.

Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} will produce one or two sets and run them to see how they compare for wear and tear.

Personally, I think it will get over the whole trouble.
