dmoore 905 #1 Posted February 23, 2022 This is probably an easy one and I think it was painted with the engine but should the coil bracket should be red along with the coil on a 78 C-101? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 41,692 #2 Posted February 23, 2022 Some are black, some are red and some (which I prefer) are silver (bare steel) Painting them seems to flake off. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I usually glass bead things like that coil bracket to ensure the paint adheres. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dmoore 905 #9 Posted February 24, 2022 Just found confirmation from an original 78 C-101 brochure the coil bracket is also red. Thanks! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
