4. Cast iron distributor gear wheel instead of the "stabalite" wheel previously fitted.
5. L.T. terminal now at the rear of the magneto close to the contact breaker instead of at the front in close proximity to the H.T. Rotor.
Other modifications are; different design bearing lubricator the absence of an advancing spring on the contact breaker, and H.T. safety gap which is now incorporated in the H.T rotor, the distributor gear wheel forming the earth electrode.
