R.R. 235 A (100 T) (S.F. 575, 16-4-19) G.{Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} 2354. To Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} c. to CJ. c. to Bn.{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} c. to BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} c. to EFC. X.3565 X.1362, E4/G29.7.19. RE TEMPERATURE INDICATOR FOR 40/50 H.P. CHASSIS Regarding the above, it appears that I have misunderstood Mr. Royce's instructions in this matter. The indicating instrument should still be on the instrument board, but the tube from it to the bulb should be of such fe a form that the apparatus can be threaded (as in the diagram below) through the instrument board and the dashboard when erecting on the chassis, and conversely unthreaded when it is desired to remove the engine cylinders.
