Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Swdl.{Len H. Swindell} K11-38 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}12/KW.27.6.36. When you run the engine for the next 15,000 miles test, will you please do so with the Tecalemit filter. We may change to a gauze filter later on, but this will ensure that the engine starts life in clean condition. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
