B.80 Marine Unit.
Herewith PL.201. showing the location of the thermometer in the cylinder head.
It will be seen that we have found a new position for it, as the original position is now taken up by the oil cooler.
We have utilised one of the core plugs on the centre line of number 6 cylinder in the inlet side of the head.
Fortunately this does not alter the cylinder head in any way.
Enclosed 4 copies of memo.
2 prints of PL.201.
Jnr.{Charles L. Jenner}
