re. PETROL FILLER CAP - 20-HP CHASSIS.

Further to our EP {G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} 8/H23.5.23, referring you to a report received from India with regard to the trouble of dust getting in under the petrol filler cap, we have now received a complaint from a customer that he considers this petrol filler cap much too easy to remove, and has resulted in it being interfered with whilst his car was standing in the street.
