| c. to WSt. V60099 HS {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 3/EW.27.1.36. Stromberg Carburetter and Ventilated Dynamo. Mx. {John H Maddocks - Chief Proving Officer} points out that if any adjustment has to be made to the Stromberg carburetter, petrol will inevitably fall on the brush gear of the ventilated dynamo. We fitted a simple shield on Wor {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} 's and Sg {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} 's cars: I do not think this can interfere with the efficiency of the ventilation of the dynamo, but lest, might check up. if o.k. it might be considered for production. HS {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} CAP . Please say. | ||
