Re: Throttle not returning to idle

I found that with this same issue that the fix was to slightly bend the tip of the ball that

Re: 12 volt coil on 6 volts

I use a 6 volt battery and a 12 volt coil no issues. 6 volt coils are twice the money and more in my part of the world. I believe that coils do not know the difference ?
