Would you please let me have by return instructions for changing over to the spare coil on WXA-1.

I daresay the instructions are somewhere in a book but I have not had time to hunt for them.

I looked at it and wondered how I should do it. I think that there ought to be a little plate attached in a conspicuous position on or near the coils telling one what to do, i.e. something on the lines we used to have in connection with the magneto on the 25/30.
