REF. 40 (11)

27th Sept. 1911.

Mr. Swetnam 27-9-11

Will you please alter the present arrangement of Magneto Wires so that it is possible to use the present valve cap spanner in taking out a valve cap.

Our suggestion in connection with those cars already fitted up is that the present bronze bracket should be used but a new small aluminium clip fitted, which will reduce the height of the tube by about 3/16".
