-5- at right angles on to the radiator tubes, is flung diagonally on to the front side of the top water tank, which causes it to swerve round, eventually the end of the swerve coming to the centre again, and has a great tendency to come out of the filler cap. We attach a sketch showing exactly what we mean and how we think the job ought to be done. We are going to fit up a double outlet to the bottom of the radiator to see whether we can keep down the air getting into the system and keep a bigger supply of water on the pump side. Details of this will be sent later. Results of other tests will follow in due course. G.W.H. | ||
