69a is correct in post #11

As I understood it, this is a warm restart problem. I don't think this is a voltage problem or he would have trouble with cold starts too.

BTW: I have tested five ballast resistors and watched them drop voltage as they get hot. They do increase the voltage drop as they get hot, but by only an additional 0.2 -0.3 volt. Negligable.
