Re: 8BA just died
That 1.5 resister should be ok if it runs with 2 amps with volt meter about 3 volts ok.
If you have a good spark out of coil, pull cap wire to grd should snapping sound 1/2"
Do this when not running. With new points and condenser should be good for years.
If your points are not staying with the correct gap your dist bushing on shaft are worn.
With the 1.75 resister the current will be less.
