40/50 CHASSIS 10,000 MILE TEST.
When the starter motor on this chassis is removed for modifications as set out in By/RDL2/W19.5.31 we should like the motor brought up-to-date by fitting a new standard trigger switch arm D.72089. This will allow the main circuit to make earlier.
With reference to the condenserof reduced capacity mentioned in the above note, we have one in the laboratory which we can supply.
