Re. Delco Ignition Coils on Packard Car
The ballast on one of these coils has broken down.
The wire was 7.5" long .012" diameter & had an aprox. res. of .74 W.
We have put on a new wire of nickel 5.5" long .011" diam.
Aprox res of .7 W.
This is now working quite well

This Sheet must be filed on completion of the work.
