| contd :- -2- With reference to the main unit - called (C) on list - it is intended that there shall be an Enots nipple at some convenient point under the bonnet, by the application of a gun to which, oil can be sent to all points in the unit. We think the most convenient and accessible position for the nipple will best be chosen by looking at the car, and we should be glad if Derby would do this, and scheme the nipple. We suggest vertically through the frame side member under the bonnet, on the lines of the nipple shewn on N.sch.2596 except that a standard double-ended banjo can be used with a cap nut. Or there may be a position on the dash. The Bijur pump is then discarded. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
