Hi, I picked up a new coil which says use with external resistor. Is this the one I need for my '72 Skylark 350-4? My old one worked but was so old and filthy I didn't want it on the motor after I get done painting it. The parts guy didn't know so I just picked one but after doing some research I'm not sure I should use it. I haven't found anything that tells me what to use. The car uses points... Thanks..
That should be correct; the factory wire (brown and pink I think?) from your switch should provide resistance while in ‘run’. Patrick
Thanks guys, once I get the motor back together I'll get the multimeter out and do some testing.... Thanks, Brad
