@1200rallycar, thanks :) brother are all the coils 12v, no?, the one originally installed was 12v oil based bottle type coil, have replaced two coils before (12v) and this is the third coil... but a dry one... no resistor installed took that off when i changed the coil, weird thing is it heats up without cranking, when i switch on the ignition its on fire??... sikyne, Bro will do that... will check the voltage to the coils and update...
