| Mr. G.R.N. Minchin, Messrs. Peto & Radford, London, S.W.1. 24th September, 1930. -2- We are having made a range of lower capacity condensers for test and I propose to bring you a low capacity condenser when I come, this may cure the misfiring not only by virtue of the fact that the tungsten points keep in better condition, but also by virtue of the fact that the available H.T. sparking potential is greater with a lower condenser capacity. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. Attachment. Extract of report. | ||
