EXTRACT FROM EH1/DB{Donald Bastow - Suspensions}24816 of AUGUST 24th, 1916. RE X.601 - LODGE SPARKING PLUGS. RE COMPLAINTS BROUGHT FORWARD BY LIEUT. HALLAM ON "EAGLE" ENGINE. From Lieut. Hallam's report, it appears as if the trouble has now been overcome by using Lodge plugs. If this is so, there appears to be no reason why anything should be altered. Model "K" Lodge plugs have been fitted as standard for some time. | ||
