[Mgs] Starter wiring

[Paul Hunt]

I agree with your explanation, but FWIW the ballast system ends up with 
there being *more* voltage to the coil when cranking than when running - 
typically 6v running, 10v cranking, but dependant on battery condition and 
temperature.

Which country came up with it, let alone the nationality, I don't know. 
Somewhere colder than the UK, I reckon.  But then as UK cars aren't held to 
be as good at cold starting as some in the world-wide scheme of things, 
maybe not.
