Typed main body:
In the reports of the 15,000 miles test of 3-B-IV and 6-B-IV reference is made to a large oil pump which has been standardised.
Would you please let us know at what point this is being introduced on production, as I am unable to trace any reference to this pump* yet on any standardisation sheets that have passed through.
