Speaking of ignition circuits I have never been clear on coils and how
some are only for points and some for electronic ignition. If the points
can handle the Sports Coil why can't the other setup?
A case in point, my 75 Spitfire has a new Crane Electronic ignition
replacing the dead Opus unit. The 1500 all had electronic set ups.
However, the cars all show a SIX volt coil on the diagram. My coil has no
marking on it, so I wonde if I can upgrade the coil with a standard coil
for ballasted systems? Does anyone know? Life was so straight forward
with the older cars.
