| X8710 W/N. To A.{Mr Adams} from EFC. EFC3/AD28.5.30. X.8710. 20 HP. CHASSIS GYL-61. IGNITION COIL. We have received a note from Mr.Cowen ref. C8/C19.5.30 remarking that as a result of intermittent battery ignition failure he on that date sent the chassis to you arranging with you that you would send to us the faulty parts for examination. We hope to receive these parts in due course. From the description it is not evident whether the failure is definitely due to the coil or the distributor contact breaker points. We should therefore like to receive both these items. EFC. | ||
