| - 2 - to impress upon customers, particularly when they have a complete failure with a petrol pump, the need to try both pumps separately at least once a day, as if this is done it would practically eliminate failures on the road. They should be instructed when one pump fails to immediately bring the car in to have the faulty pump attended to. This again should be a Servicing charge, as there is a certain amount of wear and tear on these pumps which ultimately cause the pump to fail, and it is not a matter of faulty material. By BY.{R.W.
