contd :- -2- C with a spring round the drum are 75% efficient. The heavy dampers which were run on cars are 95% efficient. Therefore as regards brake squeaks on India production cars, we anticipate that there will be definitely less trouble than we have had on the present standard 20 HP., but there will be instances of brakes squeaking. With our experience, we should anticipate that the brake squeaks on the 20 HP. should be no worse than we get on the 40/50 HP. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
