Re: 20/25 HP. Clutch.

Referring to Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/NRC.{N. R. Chandler}7/MH.{M. Huckerby}14.10.37, dealing with two complaints of clutch trouble on 20/25 h.p. chassis, I consider if the modifications made are not a definite cure, we should charge for any further replacements, as in my opinion it is grossly bad handling which is the cause of the trouble.
