Did I read once if you have the polarity wrong on the coil it will cause points to burn also? |

| | If coil polarity is reversed it will still spark but the spark is weaker and the ignition system isnt as efficient with more heat losses, and the coil has to work a bit more as the voltage has to ramp up slightly higher. It doesnt affect coil current or points life to any major extent, however. John T |

| | So theres two of us with that problem lol lol The DC LV Primary winding resistance (like 3 ohms) is the same regardless in which direction current flows through the coil....and the coil current is the current the points have to switch on and off and on and off,,,,,,,,,, John T |
