Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X872 EP{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer}3/H9.4.23. re. Lubrication of Clutch Spigot, ------------------------- With reference to your HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}2/LG20.3.23 - I am certainly in agreement, as I have been ever since I returned from Springfield with their reports of experiences in this direction, that we should be able to do away with the present system of automatic valve lubrication and use hand oiling. It should be possible in standardising this to be able to apply improvements on cars which come in for attention and repairs. EP.{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} | ||
