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.
