Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/WB.{Mr Brazier/Mr Bell}12/JH.16.6.37. K.L.G. Sparking Plugs. We have tested the plugs taken from 35-EX. They were cleaned and reset after completing mileage in France. It was necessary to replace two of the plugs, cracked insulators round the electrodes, but the rest gave a good performance in 33-EX, slow running, pick-up and top speed on either ignition.
