X2894 To EFC. BY/RD7/ML8.1.29. TUNGSTEN POINTS. Referring to EFC2/T18.12.28 suggesting a piece of flat carborundum to touch up the contact points we are of the opinion that it would be better not to touch the points at all but fit the spares supplied. We propose to leave the small file in the kit to enable the magneto points to be trimmed if required. BY/RD. | ||
