IGNITION COILS.
In reverting to 300 turns of 22 S.W.G. enamelled and S.C.C. for the primary winding the question of Ballast Resistance naturally arises, I should suggest using the same ballast resistance that we previously used with this primary as we know how this combination will behave, but you may prefer to retain the double valve ballast.
Will you please let me have your recommendation as soon as possible.
