| To HPS.{Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr} 300B Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std.7/JH.21.6.37. STEAM VALVE ON CONTINENTAL PHANTOM III RADIATOR. While this car is in the shop will you please remove the steam valve as a unit and instruct W.Bell to test it for blow off pressures. This valve has rubber seatings and we are anxious to see whether any vulcanisation of the rubber to the seating has taken place after a period of use. The valve should be refitted to the radiator.
