| ( 2 ) 29/6/35. There is also a bad leak from the air vent or drain hole, in the change speed lever housing tube. We shall try to collect it. GBY. Rear bearing is O.K. There is also a leak (not bad) from the Servo shaft bearing. Before we try breathing the box, we should like to know whether thehole in the change speed lever housing tube, is intended to breath the box. STEERING. We very much suspect, that the front suspension springs are collapsing. The front road wheels are vertical, is this as it should be ? H Have explained to F.W.H. les CARBURATION. We are reducing the mixture by degrees. Upon yesterday's results, we are getting better results. TOP OVER-OILING. Better breathing of the Engine may help this. We shall hold the Car up on Sunday, to try and over-come some of the faults. ---------- GWHancock G.{Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} W. H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} | ||
