Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.9/MA.20.10.33.
STARTER MOTOR ON 27-EX.
Will you please arrange for this motor to have the attached distance ring made and fitted behind the pinion in order to reduce the pinion rebound movement.
The pinion rebound spring D73525 should also be modified by making the free length 1.500" instead of 1.200".
