Default Re: Ballast resistor.

Much has been said about these resistors 'here' I'm still stumped, why a resistor only
on ford products. Has to be something with an original coil? Beer can coils don't need
resistors, per Motors book, my 1936 Plymouth has no resistor as well as 1950 F8 no resistor: Although my 46 car now has a can coil, maybe I should bypass the resistor, or
leave it be? I just want to know why the need for a resistor with 6 volts only on Ford products, and I never heard of a resisted 6vt coil either. sam
