| X200a To I.M. Waller, Hotel de France, Chateauroux, Indre, France. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/JBD.{John B. Dixon - Fuel Systems}1/KW.21.9.36. We are sending you a petrol pump to fit to 6-B-IV as soon as it arrives. This is on G.W.H's instructions. We should be glad if you would report on the silence of this pump, and whether it becomes noisier in use, especially when priming or when the pump is hot. Also if there is any tendency for starvation at high speeds. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/J.B.Dixon. | ||
