Dan, thanks for the reply.
I've read the VTR page and my install instructions also only talk about the
ballast resistor. Nothing on the plug gap is the problem. In fact as I type
this one handed ,I am hold for the tech support on the phone.

Alan,
Try the article http://www.vtr.org/maintain/ballast.html
Its an article about ballast -vs- nonballast coils, but does have a
paragraph on converting to a hotter coil. There also should have been
some documentation with your new coil about how much of sparkplug gap you
can now use.
