Default Found some ignition resistance....

Moving some swap meet parts around this morning and tripped over these two resistor blocks. The one (small one) is a off shore replacement (growing green stuff already) and the other one with the relays is a orginal ford i bought at a swap meet.

They both show .5 ohms !!

Using ohms law and a new skip coil ( .6 ohms) total resistance would be 1.1 ohms and using a six volt battery charging at 7.2 volts the system would see 6.5 amps .

No wonder these systems have some much drama . A compare 12 volt system would use approx 4 amps !!

Then add some more with the green stuff growing from the rice dirt on the off shore parts and it would cause even more problems!!!!!
