With the introduction of ball bearing Cams for the Servo, we shall not require the oil feed to them, as at present.

In the 10,000 miles tests they have been packed with grease and have not needed any further attention. The Bijur supply also can be cut down an S. O.{Mr Oldham} being fitted in place of the present S. l.
