BENTLEY PETROL GAUGE WIRE.

With reference to Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Wst. 24.6.37.

I note that on present cars, a petrol and oil resisting covering is being fitted to 4.1/4 Litre.

This cable is a four wire. On the 3.1/2 Litre, it is a three wire cable. Is it possible to obtain for replacements an oil resisting cable for these cars ? At the present, the same class of cable has to be fitted.
