Re: Replacement Coil?

Well, I've received and installed the 3 ohm black, oil-filled Pertronix coil with a nice 90 degree coil wire. A neat package.

Today is supposed to be around 90 (very HOT for here), so it should be a good test environment to see if the problem has been resolved. If not I suppose the distributor Ignitor module itself or even the voltage regulator could be suspect.

The inability to consistantly replicate the issue and, when it happens, the corresponding loss of power (ignition?) when the headlights are turned on is the stumper for me. Where could the current go?

But I am getting ahead of myself - we'll assume all will be resolved!
