Hello all, I'm doing a Cap replacement on GT.When I went opened it up the white gunk in the upper left corner of the GT motherboard where the two 100/16v caps are located was partly hanging off the board I found the coil after picking all the white stuff off, but i'm unsure of its orientated on the board and how it attaches. I would probably like to replace it instead of reinstalling as it looks like part of the plastic is missing. I would appreciate any info IMG

it has no plastic
it can be installed either way
its just a power filter

It will work fine that way
so was the coil up right like you see on most motherboards or laying down or does it matter?
also if I did replace it what should I replace it with? (just asking because it shot across the room out of my tension grip tweezers after the photo.

Thanks so much for your assistance thesteve
