WATFORD MAGNETOS. I have spoken to Mr. North. We seem to have only two Watford magnetos, There is reported trouble with the H.T. terminal connections because of the armoured wire being too large (trouble being corrected), and a platinum contact loose. If we are trying to get give engines we should have 12 magnetos available. R. {Sir Henry Royce} | ||
