Here's technical question for everyone. I just decided to toss my
points from the old autolite dual point and go with a pertronix
ignition. Pertronix suggests running a straight 12v right to the coil
and bypassing the resistor. I'm sure more than a few somebodys out
there have gone this route. Right now I have the pertronix hooked up to
12v and the coil still going through the resistor, seems to run fine.
Does bypassing the resistor make a difference? Should I just jump the
12v on the resistor right to the output to coil? That way I could leave
the resistor block in place for originalities sake. Why is there a
resistor to begin with?
