I've been having trouble with the tractor quiting after about a half hour use and have been suppecting the coil. Well today it was boiling when the engine quit. I needed to get the tractor home to the shop from where it quit, so I found another coil that was too big for the mounting but hung on until I got to the shop.
Now, my question- the coil that I used was from a 1986 Nissan Sentra. When I started the tractor with this coil it started very quickly, almost instantly. I'd like to mount this coil instead of buying another since it just an extra coil laying around and it started so well.
What harm to the ignition system or might result from using this coil. It may not have an internal resistor as there was some type of round capacitor looking thing attached to the original mounting bracket from the car but only had one wire going to the coil.
What do you think?
Thanks,
Loren
