Dear list members, I got stuck in the trail to my little piece of land on my first ride of a Farmal super A 1950. I figured out that the coil was dead by testing the quality of the spark. A poor yellow and short light. The tractor is 12 volts converted. I tried an spare 12 volts coil from my volkswagen bus. This coil was matched with a points distributor on the original VW engine. The "new" coil" is longer than the one that was on the farmal (maybe not an original one anyway). Now the engine never stops anymore. I read that it is a must that a resistor balast has to be there, in serie with the coil primairy current. There is no one the VW, I put no one with the farmal as well and everything is working. But for how long? This is my question, any problems to comes without a balast? Luc
