MANUFACTURERS OF:- Claudel-Hobson Carburettors, AND MOTOR ACCESSORIES. WORKS: LONDON AND WOLVERHAMPTON. ENCLO. 6 OUR REF. TPS/MW YOUR REF. 23rd December 1926. For the attention of Mr. Hives - Experimental Dept. Messrs. Rolls-Royce, Ltd., Nightingale Road, Derby. Dear Sirs, Hobson K-S Telegage. We take the opportunity of enclosing six of our Hobson K-S Telegage Service or Correction Sheets, as applicable to the English made instruments, preliminary samples of which were installed on your "Phantom" and 20 h.p. cars. We should very much like an opportunity of making an accurate calibration of any of your future model tanks, bearing in mind the necessity of bringing our vent pipe into the top of your side filler, and providing for the extra head thus imposed without decreasing the spacings of the present readings; at the same time using practically standard parts throughout our gauge. Assuring you at all times of our best attention, Yours faithfully, H.M. HOBSON, Ltd., F.P. Searight Director. [Watermark: PARCHMENT] | ||
