| 11/4. To By/NS.{Norman Scott} from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Ed.{J. L. Edwards} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Ed.{J. L. Edwards}5/MH.{M. Huckerby}17.7.39. DIAGRAMMATIC VIEW OF WATER CIRCULATING SYSTEM FOR SHOP MANUAL. It has been found necessary to draw up a diagrammatic sketch of the cooling system on B.V. for inclusion in the Shop Manual, and we should be glad if you would have this done. We suggest that an outline view of the engine be drawn and the water pump, thermostat, radiator, heater and carburetter hot spots be shown pictorially. To demonstrate the action of the thermostat a smaller drawing could be made showing the open and shut position of the instrument with consequent alterations in coolant flow. Only general pictures are required and no detail need be incorporated. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Ed.{J. L. Edwards} | ||
