- Got no reply to this one, so I'll try again, I hope somebody knows. The original ignition coil from my TR2, painted black with a flanged base and Bakalite top. On the top between the two terminals th

- I *think* that screw terminals were used to fasten the high-tension leads into the coil. (and distributor cap) Don't ask me how they fasten them on, I've never used them. But I think the Haynes (and

- Can you point to the specific page/photo in Piggott's book? Looked and couldn't find anything pictured that seemed to match your description. This group loves a mystery... the lack of response would

- I'm stumped - I have just been to look at the coil that came with my TR2 and it has no extra screw - it also has spade terminals does this mean that its not the original type ? I can't remember chan

- knows. I have an early Lucas coil, and I see the screw you are talking about. Weren't these coils filled with some kind of oil? Perhaps it is an oil filler hole (not to imply that you should actually

- From Malcolm Walker <> Well sorta...A capacitor stores an electrical charge, a coil doesn't. A capacitor blocks DC, a coil blocks AC; hence the coil's ability to provide a "kick back" HV charge, due

- You're right, that's an important part of the capacitor's practical function in the circuit, but not the main function. The reason a car will not run (or run very well) without the capacitor is becau
