Hi,
I've seen a few posts lately on the subject of Ballast Resistors and Ignition Coils so I've put together a few words on the subject which I hope will throw a bit of light on the subject for those less familiar with Electrical stuff (although I'll probably confuse the daylights out of everyone). I haven't gone onto detail as there are a lot of variables and I've kept away from formulas as they reminded me of warm June days sweating over my Electrical Engineering Degree exams when I should have been at the Isle of Man watching the TT. I've also focussed on the 6 Volt systems as those are the ones I have had practical experience on (Fords and my MGB)
