[6pack] 6 volt coil

[Navarrette, Vance]

        John:

        Measure the primary resistance. If it is too low, it will burn the
points. The later cars are about 1.3 ohms on the primary (ballasted). Early
cars are about 3.3 ohms (non-ballasted).

    I have a Lucas 6 volt coil with the same dimensions as my original
but with a different part number.  Will this work on my 76 TR6, or are
there other requirements other than being the correct voltage.  Thanks
