1235 D/BP. from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}5/R.20.4.38. With reference to D/BP18/MW.14.4.38, recommendations for Bentley and Rolls-Royce are the same. Oil Manufacturers are now putting the viscosity numbers on the cans, and, therefore, it is unnecessary to mention the advertising brand. Naturally we are arranging with the oil companies to do this before we quote viscosity numbers in the Instruction Book. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
