wool Elec 10th May, 1941. *Rn{Mr Robinson}/HO.2/ET. K.L.G. Sparking Plug, Ltd., Putney Vale, LONDON S.W. 15. For the attention of Major C.M. Carrington. Dear Sirs, We hear from our Mr. J.{Mr Johnson W.M.} Marsden of Mr. West's technical staff, that you now consider the K.L.G. F.L.B.30.X. type plug out of date and that the future car plug will be similar to the RC.{R. Childs}76. This is interesting since, for some time, we have been forced to the conclusion that the KLG.30.X. does not give quite such a good all round performance on our latest car engine, as the Champion N.8. We would like the opportunity of trying our a set of car type plugs incorporating your latest ideas. Yours faithfully, | ||
