## Discrepancy

THIS SLICK COIL IS ORANGE COLORED AND IS VERY PRONE TO FAILURE.  SUBMITTER STATES HAVE CHANGED ABOUT 15 FAILED COILS SINCE 1985.  HAVE SEEN ONLY ONE FAILURE OF A BENDIX COIL NAMED IN THE CURRENT BENDIX COIL A.D.  SUBMITTER STRONGLY RECOMMENDS AN AIRWORTHY DIRECTIVE REQUIRING REPLACMEENT OF THIS COIL, BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT.
