Your correction is incorrect. :-)
An inductor/ignition coil resists changes in current. A good analogy is a heavy spinning object. It takes energy to get it to spin, and stopping it requires...

So my Accel Superstock 1.4 ohm coil and ballast resistor setup (part numbers mentioned before) is still working fine.
I recently altered my cooling system (homebuilt fresh water cooling) so I...

Lower water pump extendo bolt alternative?
Will this work? Or why won't this work as a long bolt for the lower hole of the water pump?
This is a 4 1/2" grade 5, 3/8-16 bolt with a nut tightened/bottomed on the threads.

I agree. It really doesn't matter how the resistance is created, however using resistive wire would probably better spread the heat throughout the coil vs using a discrete carbon or ceramic...

Hi Don,
I know that in years gone by that coil manufacturers added actual resistors in the coil cans to increase the overall resistance and limit the current. Its not hard to find info on those on...

>> what was the original internal resistance of the VW coil
Bosch says the 00012 coil is a 3 ohm coil, but it measures more, 3.4 to 3.6 ohms and that's with a good Fluke meter.

Probably not since the Standard UC15 says "Requires an external resistor" right on the coil can. It might...
