| -2- Naturally, we should supply free of charge, the alcohol fuel used for the test, and if desired, the lubricating oil (As actual producers and refiners we are in a position to supply the latter to any desired specification). Incidentally, we might mention that since the original samples of our Koolmotor Alcohol Blend were supplied to you, we have effected certain slight improvements in this fuel, and a somewhat improved performance is to be expected from our present supplies, the anti-knock value being, for instance, a little higher than previously. We await the favour of your reply with interest. Yours faithfully, CITIES SERVICE OIL COMPANY LIMITED. SALES DEPARTMENT. Technical. | ||
