We have been informed that the present aluminium cap for the dipstick is difficult to turn and cannot be made on an automatic machine. We append to this memo, a dimensioned sketch showing a cap which can be made on an automatic from aluminium bar, and we suggest that this be introduced as soon as convenient. The cap referred to on production is G.86343. Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} Att: | ||
