SPARE IGNITION COIL FOR BENSPORT.

In connection with the proposal to mount a spare ignition coil on the Bensport it has been suggested that, in order to avoid confusion in the event of changing over the coils, the coil primary terminals be engraved.

A slight advantage is gained in secondary voltage output if the coil primary is connected up as shown :-

and we suggest that the coil terminal plate be engraved accordingly.
