Default Re: Mallory tech answer to coil/ballast ?

I was looking at Mallary coil and says 1.4 ohms primary to maintain if less add resister.Now if that were so 1ohm you would need 12 amps to run. adding a 1.5 ohm resister would be total of 2.4 ohms that would be 4.8 amps.So it best to keep resister.
But when a coil is made and says no resister needed. When adding lose voltage across resister."More resistince less current "
