To EFC from RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} x 7620 RHC{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer}1/EU 13. 11. 24. RE EAC STARTER MOTOR. We have now fitted to the starter motor on 93 NK the Bendix pinion with the 55° angle thread in place of the 45°, and in our opinion this functions much better. We shall be glad to have your instructions as to what you consider should be fitted to future starter motors. RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} | ||
