Re Australia.
--------

I send you herewith an extract of Peat's report dated 27/8/15.

This information may be useful to you when considering the suitability of oils for different countries.

"I have fitted a complete new set of piston rings, and given the engine a good test and the oiling now appears to be normal in every way with Vac.B oil, which I consider the most suitable for this climate."
