We have issued these to enable you to get one coil made for EFC. to try out, before we are able to do the other details. You will notice that we have put as many turns as possible on this coil, i.e. 243 of the same size wire as used on the Starter Motor Teaser Winding. We do not shew any Terminals on our coil drawing D.70481, but about 2" should be left for making the connections.

We now await your information about this coil before continuing this switch.
