Thanks to all who ventured opinions on this subject. Our professional
egos are still intact, since no-one came up with any more intelligent
answer than we had managed!
Although the suggetion that they are mounted upside down to prevent
accumulations of oil and dirt around the terminals seems, on the face of
it, to make more sense than some others (Come on, Kelsey, everyone knows

to respect gravity. Ever looked under a transmission that has leaky
seals?
As for the "short wire" theory........we love it!
