- 2 - EP{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer}7/H17.7.24. Brake. Is it not possible to apply some better means of lubricating the bearings of the rear foot brake equalising cross shaft (suggest lub. on shaft) Petrol pipe. Could not some support be arranged for the petrol pipe from the tank to the Autovac. High Tension Wires from magneto to plug. These appear to be badly trapped between the induction pipe and the cylinders. Low Tension Wires. There is some protection arranged on the frame adjacent to the dashboard where the Low tension wires pass through. We feel that similar protection should be arranged where the same wires pass at a very sharp angle over the brackets supporting the side trays for the undershield. EP.{G.
