    According to my instructions

    3ohms 11 watt resistor left of 1
    Main electrical feed right of 1
    Ign Coil left of 2
    ign switch right of 2

    The 1 & 2 should be stamped on the base with the four terminals hope that helps

    Right, copied from my rallycar....

    obviously the two main ones are for battery cables
    the terminals marked "Z" is for the ignition feed,
    the terminals marked "W" or "M" depending what way up you look at it, needs to be wired one side to the +ve supply(when the switch is on)and the other to side to earth through a 3 ohmn resistor.
    doesn't mater which side is which as it works either way.

    I have a diagram @ work which explains it better but I'm off this week

    HTH

    either, take your pick, it doesnt make any difference

    mine is on @ 9 o'clock and off at 6 o'clock which makes the battery terminals 3 and 9 o'clock with Z @top and W below, when viewed from the back.
    just need to remember to wire one of the "W" terminals to the side that is live ony with the switch in the on position.

    Cheers
