| X7535 P. PN.{Mr Northey}1/WT15.2.30. RECEIVED 15 FEB 30 S/W. EFC...from PN.{Mr Northey} Copy to H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} A further case has arisen where battery terminals have become very badly corroded i.e. on our trials car 2-WJ. This also is a Peto and Radford battery. The suggestion always made is that this is probably due to want of ventilation. Do you agree because one would think improved ventilation would be so simple if necessary. PN.{Mr Northey} | ||
