We send you herewith drawings Nos. Lec^t 1641 & 1643 shewing respectively air pump and control valve springs, and air pump cam. The springs given on Lec 1641 differ slightly from those drawn on Lec 1626 & 1639, as the final calculations shewed that some modification was necessary.

Would you kindly issue the necessary instructions?
