If you do not think that these proposals will be suitable for your engines, we shall have pleasure in submitting others. We may say that we are making up a test apparatus for another leading automobile manufacturing firm, in which the thermostat operates the valve on the inlet pipe of the jacket while the thermostat is fitted on the outlet pipe.
