A set of these plugs were fitted to G.H.Withey's Bentley on the 21.6.38. This Owner has run a considerable distance in Germany. He was in the Depot on the 3.9.38 the mileage on the plugs then being 3,106. No misfiring had taken place and the points were not shewing any deterioration. One plug was cracked when replacing them and a spare fitted. We are expecting this Owner to be calling in again shortly. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/GWH.{George W.
