We have received complaints from the experimental dept., stating that the high tension terminal of the ignition coils on the Phantom III cars interfere with the adjustment of the fan; also that there is some risk of the terminals being damaged by the spanner when this adjustment is made. In order to eliminate this trouble we recommend that the coils be mounted so that the H.T. terminals point to the rear of the car instead of to the front, as at present.
