I have a late CSi which is running on original contact breakers, the coil looks very old and has a red / orange top and is branded Bosch. I can't see a ballast resistor anywhere and not sure which wire to measure to see if that is the resistor.
I had a misfire so tried to change all the easy bits, points, plugs, condenser and finally cool. But what type of coil do I use?
My local motor parts place sold me one that was supposed to be correct. However the box it came in said that it is 12v, I am told by a reliable source that it should run a ballast resistor and a 9v coil.
Can anyone explain this to me and which coil they think is correct?
Thanks
