X4232 Mr Shelton. c. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} 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. BY.{R.W.
