| THE S. U. COMPANY. CONTINUATION NO. ___________ We would suggest, therefore, as a temporary expedient pending replacement of all the pumps, that you have a number of these new armatures and diaphragms and get your Service people when servicing your cars, to fit them into suspect pumps. In the meantime we will get on with some new pumps for complete replacement purposes and will let you have these say two at a time. We should be obliged if you would then have these fitted in place of suspects and return the originals to us for rectification. I think you will agree that this would be a satisfactory way of dealing with the situation. We are absolutely up to our eyes in it at the moment as we have something like 20,000 suspect pumps on the road. Kind regards. Yours sincerely, RSllumun [Watermark: ABERMILL BOND] | ||
