Y6112 Hd.{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy} C - Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} C - BP. C - S/y Mr. Brock. RECEIVED BY/RD1/W.14-5-31. Re :- 20/25 H.P. Chassis No.GLR-8. - Miss Yule - We return to you herewith the Condenser D.71505 removed from the above chassis, alleged faulty. This is perfectly O.K. and we suggest that this is another case where a poor connection has been made and in going over the ignition system and removing one unit the fault has been unconsciously corrected. You may remember that we have had customers who send for new Ignition Coils and afterwards admit that they did not want them as they found the trouble was due to something else. The fact that a new Condenser has been fitted and the trouble cured is no proof at all that the unit removed is faulty. BY/RD. | ||
