WIRING. X.4075. 20 HP.

We recommend that when the wiring arrangement is got out for this car, consideration is given so that the cover for the valves with the coil and wiring can be taken right off the car if any work is necessary to be done. At present the wire from the battery to the ballast resistance is carried through the tube which is clipped to this cover. If there was a convenient terminal on the dashboard, the cover with the wiring tube wires coil, the ballast resistance and top of the high tension distributor could then be removed from the engine in one unit.
