RE. CHASSIS SPARKING PLUG.

Replying to your memo. BY/JH5/T7119, we do not recommend the present Lodge Aero plug, i.e., K.R.3., for use on our chassis. The slowrunning is not good enough.
We recommend that tests be made of the 3 point Lodge plug, as used by us prior to the War.
We think this, however, is a matter for Mr.Hives.
