| R.R. 493A (50 H) (D.D. 31. 12-6-25) J.H.D. EXPERIMENTAL REPORT. -2- Expl. No. REF: less likely to have over-oiling troubles than the first cars. This is proved by the fact that cars which are returned are simply fitted up with the latest parts. Over-oiling is a very difficult problem. This is proved by thefact that your London Trials cars, which must have done considerable running in London have never given any trouble with over-oiling, yet cars made to the identical designs, have given trouble.
