Rubber Mounted Petrol Pump - Bentley.

Will you please arrange to fit the new petrol pump rubber mounting scheme to 6-B-IV car. This is a modification necessary with the noise insulation scheme on the dashboard to enable the petrol pumps to be taken off the dashboard without removing the metal shields.

Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Dwg. has already instructed for petrol pumps to be fitted on the battery box of this car. Please note we require both schemes fitting.
