[Healeys] FW: Still Missing under load 64 BJ8

[BillHUCK at aol.com]

I come belatedly to this subject.
I have driven four Healeys since 1965.
I have weathered most of their problems.

When I hear of disfunctions related to warm or hot engines I look to the 
coil.
Some coils have an internal ballast resistor; such coils become hot to the 
touch because all of the 
IxIxR heat ends up in the coil, making it less efficient. Many such coils 
have been sold as high-output replacement devices. They probably work well in 
cooler climates.

Your problem might be resolved by installing a coil that requires an external 
ballast resistor; such coils run so much cooler. An added attraction; cold 
starting is much improved.
