-2- Exhaust system is bad for "crackling" both when warming up and cooling down. Occasional misfires picking up, and carburettor "luffed up" 5 or 6 times. Petrol tank leaks, this is being investigated. Rattle and squeak from front end of car - to be investigated. Fumes get into the body after braking rather more than the average car. Petrol gauge does not read correctly, sticks at empty, and frequently flicks across the gauge. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Wym.{G. Harold Whyman - Experimental Manager} | ||
