| Post subject: | Coil problems. How & which one? |
First & foremost this site is a great tool for me & just about everyone on it. I really appreciate the insight from everyone. Now the delema I'm facing- I just purchased the Summit series coil(# sum-850500) & ignition box(both are made by & are exact replicas of a Mallory Hyfire 6 set up). The problem is the coil has a primary resistance of 0.500 ohms & of course it needs to be at least 3.2 ohms. Now i noticed when i was riding with Bert, Dave & Okie in wellsville a few weeks ago Bert had the msd blaster ss coil & i failed to look at the wiring. Im running the new Hot Spark Bosch Distributor with the electronic set up already installed. My question is ......Is there such thing as a 3.000 ohm ballast resistor & or can i wire two 1.5 ohm resistors in series hence making the 3.0 ohms i need? Or should i just go back to my new bosch blue coil. Im just trying to get the best bang for my buck! Im running a 1915cc & dual weber 40's. I appreciate any & all help. Jamie aka buggyjunkie |

There would be nothing wrong with putting two together to get the number you need. That would work. Anything is better than trying to use that blue coil. I hate those things. Roy |

There are 2 blue coils. One is a POS epoxy filled and the other is a decent piece, it's oil filled. Those are around $30-35. The cheap one is about $20, shy away from those. |
