| X4079 To EFC. from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} E1/M19.3.23. X.4079 - TALLER IGNITION COIL FOR GOSHAWK In reply to your memo. EFC5/T13323., 5 Goshawk II. is not fitted with one of the taller coils, and we should be glad to fit one on this chassis if you will send it. The coil we have is as far as appearance goes one fitted with a stabalite case, and the wax has run out of the H.T. terminal plugging, due to the heat. This car has been boiled once or twice when the thermostat was out of order. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
