To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} xu6 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Smth.5/JH. 27.2.36. 25 H.P. & Bentley - rear oil seal. The present crankcase rear oil seal appears to be far from satisfactory on the 25 H.P. and Bentley, and we should like to try a scheme similar to the SpectreCodename for Phantom III one. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 74 shows a convenient way of doing this experimentally. Will you please detail and make the necessary pieces. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Smth. | ||
