| To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from EFC. c. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} x9780 EFC3/T11.11.24. X.928. IGNITION TIMING x9480 Herewith please receive copy of instructions for the ignition timing of EAC.3 engine. Before issuing this completely for the use of the Works, we would like you to determine if it meets with your approval. Please note that it is based upon the assumption that magnetos which are timed to these instructions have been marked to indicate a break corresponding to No.1 cylinder in the fully retarded position, and not in the fully advanced, as heretofore. It is understood that this alteration has been arranged with Messrs. Norths. EFC. | ||
