K.L.G. Sparking Plugs Limited CONTINUATION NO. 1. DATE 5.4.34. Messrs. Rolls-Royce, Ltd. You will appreciate that this cutting away increases the gap capacity of the plug and will, therefore, tend to lower its heat resistance. This may show up on a bench test, but we think it is very unlikely that any adverse effect will be noted on the road. We are also returning the cleaned 765-A plug to which we have already referred. Yours faithfully, p.p. K.L.G. SPARKING PLUGS LIMITED. Director. | ||
