STARTER MOTOR ON CHASSIS 9-EX. X7625D

The instruction of modification to the armature of this motor contained in BY/RD6/ML9.11.28 should be carried out at the first convenient opportunity, as the evidence derived from the trial of this arrangement may be of considerable value.

We would also like to confirm with you the urgency of the 37 slot half armature tapered motor, instructed for this particular car in BY/RD6/ML11.10.28. We hope from this considerable gain in performance.

EFC.
