I wanted a little hotter spark for my Farmall H .. (plus my 12 standard coil went bad).
I pull this tractor some so wanted to get a "hotter" coil ..
I thought of putting an electronic ignition with a hotter coil but the store had to order it so didn't - and not sure that is what I needed anyway.
I am a little confused about what I need for maximum spark.
One person told me to make sure my coil was a 3 ohm coil -- another recommended an "Accel Super Stock 8104 12 volt" coil
The "more power" Accel coil says it's "Primary resistance is 1.4 ohms and secondary resistance is 9.2 kilo ohms" .. (not sure what this means).
Again ... I am not sure about this "resistance" thing .. the one I had on it said "12 volt use without external resister" ...
So - those of you who know about this type of things .. what do I really need to get maximum spark?
I understand vaguely - about an internal resister and "use without resister" but not sure which does WHAT ...
Just wanted some opinions or help in this matter .. thanks a lot !!
