To RM{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/IMW.{Ivan M. Waller - Head of Chateauroux}

We acknowledge receipt of your telegram Wander:

DO NOT FIT NEW SERVO DISC OIL SEAL AND CLUTCH PLATE UNLESS ESSENTIAL BEFORE YOU RECEIVE INSTRUCTIONS

We enclose sample of oil taken 6385 miles after fitting the new American air filter element; which we think show an improvement over the English one.

We have not yet received the wind tone horns or any advice of their despatch.
