Default Re: coil trouble??

You HAVE to run a resistor if you're running points, no matter what coil you use.

If you go electronic ignition, you should not run a resistor.

Hey, do a resistance test on your plug wires just for kicks. *They should be <2000-5000 ohms per foot. *A high wire resistance means a high secondary coil voltage which could cause internal shorts and stuff. Normal for most wires is 700-1000 ohms per foot.
