OIL DIP STICK FOR P.II SYNCHROMESH GEARBOX.

We send you herewith a sketch of the dip stick for this gearbox giving the oil level we have found best. We think that the "7 pints" might be marked on the stick. Engine oil will be used in this gearbox. Will you please instruct this stick for all gearboxes some of which have already reached the Test Dept.
