Hi Martin, It is an American reference, but it can be quite common in electrical references here in the UK also. Have a look at the following URL for the conversion: http://www.hardwarebook.net/table

This is a running '77 1500. I'm trying to switch from the original Lucas electronic ignition to a Crane. The car has a checkered past and while the Lucas ignition is there, the ignition wiring does n

Here's the deal on ballast resistors: According to Crane, all Bosch Blue coils and Lucas Coils have internal ballast resistance. If you aren't sure, measure across the leads of the coil with an ohmm

OK, I get 1.5 ohms across the poles on the coil (and 0.9 ohms on a spare; both are Lucas). Means no ballast, correct (remember, I'm an electrical idiot)? I don't understand what a drive resistor mea

I'm not getting this (remember, I'm an electrical idiot). Why is measuring the wire to the drive resistor pertinent? The finned aluminum thing identified as the drive resistor is on a blind circuit

Hi Brent, It sounds like the "original" electronic ignition system on your car has already been replaced which is not unusual. It would not otherwise work with the drive resistor (on air pump bracket

I have the Crane and have found its performance more than adequate. However, there those who swear the Pertronics unit is superior. I think the Pertronics unit used magnetic pickup rather than an op

I have the Pertronix Ignitor installed on my Spit. It definitely is an improvement in starting and at idle. I really like the fact that everything fits under the cap and can be re-fitted to standard
