Re: [AMC-list] sheesh! f'!@!@!@ing



I thought it was the points that couldn't handle 12 volts all the time....

...and I thought the resistir was to keep the (stock)coil from overheating when running. The resistor is bypassed when starting to get full spark but it can't
handle 12volts all the time.

Quoting das24rules@xxxxxxxxx:

i thought the ballast resistor was for the coil power draw. i was always
told
when you convert to electronic (pertornix, msd ect) the resister can go
because the coil isnt pulling power from the points anymore. the electronic box is powering the coil. but hey, i dunno. i got a pertronix on the ordered
list. along with the rest of the parts for my aluminum 196.
