re K.L.G. Plugs.

With reference to your enquiry as to the suitability
of the above plug for the Phantom engine, so far as our
experience goes, we have found them quite satisfactory.
In fact, some time ago, when we were in trouble with
overoiling on the Phantom engine, we considered the K.L.G.
Plug to be definitely better than the Lodge.
As we are not suffering from this trouble at the present
time, this point does not greatly concern us.
