| -2- Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}11/KW.26.5.34. His verbal expansion of these notes was :- (1) He got brake jaggers, I did not gather whether they were from the servo or from the front brakes. (2) He wanted an absolutely accurate rev. counter. (3) The one shot oil tank was leaking as also was the water pump gland. (4) The tail pipe support spring had collapsed. Experimentally we are very interested in this car as it has done 4,000 miles at racing speeds, and we think it is certainly worth while examining the engine and clutch. However, perhaps you will tell us what you propose to do with regard to this. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
