Re: Ground wire insulation on OMC coils

[frankr]

It is true that if you don’t push the wire away from the hub as far as you can, there is danger of it rubbing and maybe even wearing in two. And of course rubbing on the flywheel won’t affect the way it runs, but certainly can wear it in two as just discussed.

BTW, while on the subject, it is often seen where the other coil wire rubs on the breaker cam, and/or the condenser wire loops upward and rubs on the flywheel.

Good practice demands that these things are addressed properly.
