| To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} from EFC. c. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/AJL. x7690 EFC3/T27.1.28. MUSHROOM ROTOR. It transpires that owing to an error, the mushroom rotor will not go on the distributor arrangement of parts to Lec.2460,(owing to fouling of the condenser connecting screw) without an alteration which is now in hand. Therefore, we cancel the instruction contained in our EFC4/T18.1.28 for the mushroom rotor to be fitted to chassis 15-EX, and we will revert to the instruction to have this same rotor fitted to 12-EX, for which a suitable alteration to the condenser connection will be instructed. We trust you will not overlook the SP{Mr Spinney}2 coil for 15-EX. This has been handed to you for the purpose but as far as we know, has not yet been put on. EFC. | ||
