| To HPS.{Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr} from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/JBD.{John B. Dixon - Fuel Systems} Y 351 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/JBD.{John B. Dixon - Fuel Systems}18/AP.17.12.36. 35-EX. Will you please arrange to fit the three petrol pump scheme to LeC.5378 on 35-EX. At the same time, we wish to have a switch fitted to the dash to enable either the double pump or single pump to be used separately or both together. If one of these switches is not yet available, two push pull switches could be fitted instead. Would you also mount the double petrol pump on a 20/30 HP. rubber mounting D.5812 and secure the rubber to the dash on studs. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/JBD.{John B.
