Re: [Healeys] Petronics (score: 1): Author: Oudesluys <coudesluijs@chello.nl>; Date: Sun, 19 Apr 2009 08:19:23 +0200; Most electronic ignitions provide a stronger spark and need at least a 3 Ohm resistance from the coil plus resistor at all times. During start up the resistor is shorted to increase the voltage on th; /html/healeys/2009-04/msg00521.html (9,375 bytes)

The EI made for the AH from Pertronix does now require a ballast resistor. Been using them for 20 years with no failures. -- Sent from my mobile dev; /html/healeys/2009-04/msg00522.html (10,585 bytes)

The only time Pertronix goes bad is if the cam magnet assembly delaminates, or if it is wired up backwards. Because of the stronger spark; /html/healeys/2009-04/msg00523.html (8,648 bytes)
6. Re: [Healeys] Petronics (score: 1): Author: Awgertoo@aol.com; Date: Sun, 19 Apr 2009 07:10:37 EDT; Don't be too quick to pull out the Pertronix. Check your coil for 3 ohms resistance, then contact Jeff Schlemmer at Advanced Distributors who had a special run of rotors made.
