Default Re: Bubba's distributor question

The distributor is an on off switch that does not care about the coil. What does care about the coil is the condenser. Ultimately the condenser is matched to the coil. If the point pit to one side you need a bigger one and to the other it needs to be smaller. The coil manufacturer will tell you whether a resistor is needed. My 49 does not have one for 6 volts. At least I do not think it does.
