Years ago they used to have a small 110volt generator tthat. Mounted to a car or truck engine like an alternator. It was all self contained, it would run a drill or skilsaw. Was a pretty handy deal. Would like to find one of them .

| Ya no all that common any more. A good many of those where DC so would run a drill etc but not things like a radio etc

| I agree the GM alternator is probably a better choice, but I have the Ford alternator and a VR is $15. I may as well use it. Need a coil and battery either way.

| You do not have to replace the coil all you do is add a ballast resister between the ignition switch and the coil O'Reilly's part number VR-1 works well and can be mounted to a thin piece of metal so as to have a heat sink and it cost less then $5

| I thought I needed a ballast resistor (or coil with an internal resistor) and a 12V coil vs 6V coil. Either way, it's probably a horse apiece, a 12v coil with internal resistor is $9.99, and I should put a new on on anyway.

| No such thing as a coil with an internal resister. The 12 volt coils are wound different so as to be a true 12 volt coil due to higher resistance in the way they are wound

| | Sure there is. All coils have internal resistors - i.e. the windings. A coil sold as not needing an external ballast resistor for a 12 volt system simply has the equivalent of the the external ballast resistor windings rolled into the internals. Outside or inside - it's still a bunch of small wire windings to create resistance. Regardless if a "6 volt" coil with separate resistor outside, or a "12 volt coil" with no outside coil of wire or carbon resistor wire (like GM and Deere use sometimes) - it will all total somewhere around 3-4 ohms on the primary.

| But it does not have an internal resister as such so as I said I am correct.

| I think we are talking in circles. The coil inside the can IS a resistor.

| As per electronic terms as taught in such school no. It is wound in such a way so as not to have the need for a resister but the wire is not a resister but is just wound so that there is no need for a resister which it in fact 2 different things. Navy ET and electronics tek for decades as in since 1974. I have forgot man thing when it comes to electronics that few ever learned. If you understand electronics explain this.

Ok I guess every young girl is some dad's daughter. I never had any trouble getting students to understand the color bands on resistors since I learned that. 60 Acre Hillside.

| I learned that in Navy A school for basic electronics the went to B school for computer maintenance/repair. Learned to hate working on electronics so gave it up and did engines and welding and other hands on such. Boy have the computers changed since I use to fix them
