Item 4. Petrol Tank Filters.

We have already reported favourably on the drilling of the holes at the top of the filter in order to increase the rate at which the petrol tank can be filled. A copy of this report was sent to EP.{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} and a copy to R.R.Inc. (Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}3/LG13.4.21).
