Thanks, John and Ruairidh for your comments. I am considering using a resistor to bring the coil resistance (currently 1.1 ohm) up to the value that Ruairigh suggests. Would that work?
Incidently, I have just had an email from Powerspark saying that because my system is 6volts, their distributor will work fine with my coil resistance of 1.1 ohm. Does using a higher resistance mean that the distributor electronics will operate with less heat and therefore last longer?
Do you think that use of resistive leads is to prevent interference with the distributor electronics or is it to prevent interference with other devices?
Regards
Graham
