Delco Distributor Thank you for your memo Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}4/R.15.2.38, and for getting the new Delco distributor off to us. This has been received and fitted, and mileage resumed. Apart from the sheared pin in the driving dog, there appeared to be nothing whatsoever the matter with the distributor. We have therefore fitted a new R.R. taper pin and are carrying this unit as a spare on the car in case of further trouble. --------- Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/IMW.{Ivan M. Waller - Head of Chateauroux} | ||
