Kees is quite right here, except for the resistance. It should be at least 1
Ohm when operating a 123.
We've made very good experience with 1.5 Ohms for 6 cylinder engines/high
revving 4 cyl. engines and 3 Ohms for other 4 cyl. engines.

The 123 ignition has the advantage of an adjustable advance curve. There
are many options to choose from. As with most electronic ingnition check
the coil (plus resistor or resitor wire) is 3 Ohms or more unless stated
otherwise.
This system is very robust and rarely gives any trouble. if connected up
properly.
