Dixon - Fuel Systems}10/AP.13.4.38 WRAITH BUMP CHASSIS. Will you please remove the petrol tank from the above chassis for examination. As there are no fittings on the top of the tank it will be necessary to cut a hole in the top to inspect the baffles. Providing the tank is still intact a plate can be soldered over this hole and tank re-fitted for further running. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/JBD.{John B. Dixon - Fuel Systems} | ||
