INDUCTION AND EXHAUST PIPES. X4227. We are having considerable trouble with the Induction and Exhaust Pipes on Goshawk 11. being porous. This has occurred on the cast iron and malleable pipes. Although we have tested them and welded them up before fixing them on to the chassis, they developed trouble after running. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
