Dear Sirs, We thank you for your letter of the 18th January concerning the bracket and driving lever for the 4-cylinder distributor. We find that, by modifying our housing and using your 406601 type bracket we can overcome the difficulty, and we would like you to proceed along these lines. Can we expect the starter drives with the special rubbers in the near future? Yours faithfully, | ||
