Re: Replacement Ignition Coil Nobody said that idle speed had anything to do with all out performance , its just a characteristic of the performance coils that I have used . You obviously have problems with reading comprehension . . .

At full throttle I can see an original coil not providing consistent spark, but the voltage demand is much higher than at idle. So I'm going to do the idle test and try to prove myself wrong. |
Re: Replacement Ignition Coil 40 Deluxe, suppose a brand new coil fires a split second sooner when the points open, that would be the same as more advance. And something that would be both hard to measure and the resulting increase in RPM of no meaning; would love to know your test results
Mr Swoft how many would be concerned about compression blowing out a spark with a 4.2 head at 2200 rpm. A 10:1 head at 7K, that would be different . Spark, timing, coils, points and such can be confusing and could be a great thread to clarify from. To many, timing and ignition and spark is just shoving a pin in a hole |
Re: Replacement Ignition Coil See the attached article though not sure how much science data is involved.. Perhaps it will help with Bob's initial ?. Note the sentence that the 2ndary output is around 100 x the primary voltage with other parameters in force as well.
Removed the attached, may be corrupted file. Go to MGAguru.com "Ignition Coil and Testing" and see if it opens. |
Re: Replacement Ignition Coil Why not ask Pertronix ??? Maybe they can clear up your confusion ... This is the last time that I will open this thread .

Re: Replacement Ignition Coil LOL TOM! I have yet to install my flamethrower coil.I lost all spark 2 year ago and after the car cooled down she fire up.. It's not done it since.

So no RPM increase for me. |

duke36, thanks, I found it.
I've been testing a bunch of old 6 volt coils and also some 12 volt ones that call for a ballast resistor, but not using one and testing them using 6 volts. They all put out around 25KV, some as high as 28 KV. For testing I use an old GM distributor clamped in a vise and turn the shaft by hand to open and close the points. I've been using a tester similar to this one: |
