To RHC. {R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} from EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} c. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /TMW. X4430 EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 1/T15..1.24. X.4430 - GOSHAWK IGNITION CONDENSERS. Herewith we return to you condenser No.494 which you recently took off 7-GII for our examination, after running 10,000 miles. Would you kindly now replace this on 7GII, and hand us back condenser No.547 now removed. The reason for this further exchange is that we have tungsten points on 7GII, and the temporary condenser capacity is over the production limits. We wish to keep the conditions for the tungsten points as near standard as possible in all respects. EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} | ||
