1. [Healeys] Lucas Sports Coil (score: 1): Author: "PG" <britishcars@shaw.ca>; Date: Sun, 22 Feb 2009 07:14:08 -0800; Does anybody know if the Lucas Sports Coil is internally ballasted or I'm installing a Unilite distributor and already have a sports coil..I don't know if I have to add a ballast resistor or not. Any; /html/healeys/2009-02/msg00641.html (6,556 bytes)
2. Re: [Healeys] Lucas Sports Coil (score: 1): Author: Bob Spidell <bspidell@comcast.net>; Date: Sun, 22 Feb 2009 08:31:39 -0800; Don't ballasted systems require two primary circuits; i.e. one for starting (non-ballasted) and one for running (ballasted)? The distributor won't care, as it switches the primary circuit--12V or oth; /html/healeys/2009-02/msg00643.html (8,662 bytes)

As I recall a coil for use with a ballast resistor has an impedance of something like 1.5 ohms whereas one for use without is more like 3.2 ohms; /html/healeys/2009-02/msg00644.html (9,348 bytes)
4. Re: [Healeys] Lucas Sports Coil (score: 1): Author: Richard Ewald <richard.ewald@gmail.com>; Date: Sun, 22 Feb 2009 08:55:53 -0800; You are 1/2 right. If it didn't matter, then they would not have put ballast resistors (either internal or external) into the ignition systems. If you use an internally ballested coil on a system wit; /html/healeys/2009-02/msg00645.html (9,070 bytes)

Re: [Healeys] Lucas Sports Coil (score: 1): Author: Bob Spidell <bspidell@comcast.net>; Date: Sun, 22 Feb 2009 09:38:11 -0800; OK, so ignition systems with ballast--either external resistor or internal to coil--use points/condensers than can't handle 12V+ continuously (makes sense--the bean counters can save a few shillings); /html/healeys/2009-02/msg00646.html (9,113 bytes)

Re: [Healeys] Lucas Sports Coil (score: 1): Author: Oudesluys <coudesluijs@chello.nl>; Date: Sun, 22 Feb 2009 18:55:00 +0100; If you have an electronic system you have to take care with the coil and ballast resistor if present. Some electronic ignition systems require a minimum resistance of coil (plus resistor) of 3 Ohms I; /html/healeys/2009-02/msg00647.html (9,098 bytes)
7. Re: [Healeys] Lucas Sports Coil (score: 1): Author: Bob Spidell <bspidell@comcast.net>; Date: Sun, 22 Feb 2009 11:50:03 -0800; I checked a book I have called "Tuning Lucas Ignition Systems." In it, there's a schematic for a ballasted system showing a lead from the ignition switch through a ballast resistor to the coil and on; /html/healeys/2009-02/msg00649.html (8,567 bytes)

To elaborate this; one has to consider adding an extra contact to the starter button or switch or alternatively a relay circuit if one wishes to convert a standard A-H to a ballasted sys; /html/healeys/2009-02/msg00673.html (8,862 bytes)

Re: [Healeys] Lucas Sports Coil (score: 1): Author: Oudesluys <coudesluijs@chello.nl>; Date: Mon, 23 Feb 2009 11:53:51 +0100; If you have an electronic ignition system fitted always check that it can handle the the lower resistance/impedance of the coil less balast resistor. In many systems you always have to have the resis; /html/healeys/2009-02/msg00674.html (9,526 bytes)
