Re E.87916 - Phantom III Sparking Plug Terminal. We have received complaints from the T.D. that the above terminals are too tight on their respective plugs. This is because the terminal is initially fitted to the plug thread only instead of to the adaptors which fits over the thread. Will you please instruct that the terminals shall be fitted to the plug with the adaptor in position. Wst/RC.{R. Childs} | ||
