[QUOTE="chankly bore, post: 48309, member: 317"] O.K.then, on a Comet the pick-up must point downward to lessen ingress of water or other nasties into the contact area at the end of the H.T .lead.It needs to be clipped to the return pipe A54ASF in such a position that it cannot touch any fins. Then along that return pipe clipped again then around the back of the FT3 or FT3/2 and back along forward to the plug. I have found it useful to put another clip on A53ASF such as to allow removal of the plug cap without dislocating it from the area where it does its work. This stratagem is of benefit on dark nights miles from the nearest illumination. It fairly peeves me to see H.T. leads going through the head finning or loitering about near the exhaust pipe or port.Twin rear lead straight along to the plug.The obvious plan is to keep the H.T. lead from frying and for you to be able to connect and disconnect it without cooking yourself.
