tubman, Thanks. I appreciate your suggestions and knowledge. Here's some interesting about BOSCH BLUE COILs.
https://vwparts.aircooled.net/12V-Bo...p/00-012us.htm

When I bought the Pertronix kit (ML-181)it came with the Pertronix coil # 40001 with 1.5 ohm primary resistance. I not using a condenser or a ballast resistor.

My distributor is a Mallory YL 2527501 Series 25 dual point unit converted to a Pertronix using their ML-181 kit. Pertronix told me to use their Flamethrower 1.5 ohm coil, not the 3 ohm coil.

The more I read, the more confused I get about what coil is the correct coil to use with my Pertronix.
Additional thoughts welcomed with open arms.
Thanks, JIM
