| - 2 - ENGINE FABRIC COUPLING. This coupling has been examined and is quite O.K. PEDALS. Pedals to scheme LOP. F.72359. Bearings seem quite O.K. Rear brake mechanism O.K. Servo adjusted up 8 notches. This is not due to wear, but is due to the job settling down. STEERING BOX SUSPENSION. This suspension is still holding good. Whilst investigating the suspension we noticed a peculiar knock in the box. we have tried tightening up pendulum lever, holding nut on to worm, holding pendulum lever tight, but we have not yet been able to locate this knock. We believe that it is due to a slack thrust washer, but cannot ascertain the cause without dismantling the steering. It is got by a revolving steering wheel when the Car is stationary. COACHWORK. This body will not hold up for long, as already doors and windows are rattling badly. we are endeavouring to keep it in as fit a condition as possible. G.W.HANCOCK. | ||
