Just make sure which coil you have, and make sure you have the appropriate
voltage feed to it. A 12v coil typically measures about 3 ohms, a 6v coil
typically about 1.5. The 6v coil will require a ballast of similar
resistance, this was originally provided within the loom and had two
light-green white wires on the coil +ve. One was the ballasted supply, the
other goes to the boost terminal on the solenoid. The cooil -ve should have
two white/black wires, one to the points and the other to the tach.
The points gap was always .014 - .016, which gives a dwell of 51 +-5 on a
45D.
