| C O P Y From: CITIES SERVICE OIL COMPANY LIMITED. 12.5.33 - 2 - We are taking the liberty of enclosing herewith copies of communications which we have received recently from responsible individuals commenting on the favourable results obtained from our alcohol fuel. It may also interest you to know that we are supplying this grade to the Alvis Car & Engineering Company at Coventry who find its exceptional anti-knock value very suitable for certain of their high compression ratio engines. The Leeds Industrial Co-Operative Society have also been running their fleet of vehicles on Koolmotor for some time. We should be happy to have the opportunity of answering any further technical queries which may occur to you, and, in the meantime, we look forward to being favoured with a trial order which would enable you to determine in a practical manner the merits of our product. Assuring you of our best attention Yours faithfully, CITIES SERVICE OIL COMPANY LIMITED sgd. A.R.Ogston Sales Department Technical | ||
