May be a basic question
I check the resistance on the porcelin Ballast resistor it is at 1.9 Now i am really confused? Why does it show 12 Volts coming from the coil to the hot side and 12 volts leaving on the ignition Buttom side? i ALREADY PURCHASED THE NEW PETRONIX Is my old one still good (i can keep it as a Spare)
Please advise
Thank you
Bill

Hi Bill,
Nice chatting with you. To respond to this thread - the middle wiring diagram is for a Pertronix II with a Stock rated coil, the idea being to drop the voltage to the ignition system to keep things from getting fried.
The bottom diagram includes the different coil with the different rating which does not require the voltage to be dropped to the coil.
If I got all that wrong, surely someone will step in and help me out.
