doesn't the box label them on the tab?? all sealed power boxes I've used have had such.... there should be a dot on the flat area = faces up

Not as it top to bottom, but which way the endgaps are supposed to face, im pretty sure theyre supposed to be 120* away from each other, but i cant remember the order , or which way is supposed to go, or does it not matter?

just put them opposite of each other they will spin once the engine is running anyway. Just don't line them up. All I ever do never had any issues at all.

as uedlose states , place them at opposite ends of each other
