Re: [TR] TR2 - coil recommend.

[Stan Foster <stan@redtr6.com>]

I put a new Lucas 12v sport coil in my TR6 in 1990 and it is still working. I 
put a new Lucas 12v sport coil in my TR3a in 2016 and that is still working. I 
keep a spare in both cars though. The Interweb has a lot of sad stories about 
when good coils go bad.

Subject: [TR] TR2 - coil recommend.

Hello List:

Have been using a 50+ year old Lucas Sport coil on my '2 for some time and 
realize I may be pressing my luck with this one. Looking for a recommendation 
for a replacement; will keep the old Sport as a "get me home" spare.

Understand the "new" Lucas Sports have had their share of premature failures. 
Also considered a Bosch "blue". Lots of after-market "super coils" from 
Pertronix & the like.

Any recommendations & good experiences out there?

Thanks!
