[DeTomaso] Definition of Ins. EE response

[Pantdino]

Pat,
It's not relevant to the issue at hand, but for my knowledge base:

I'm thinking that use of a coil with too much resistance will give less ouput to the plug but probably not result in premature failure of the driving box, whereas too little resistance might overheat or eventually lead to failure of the driver.

True or not?

Thanks,

Jim

Hi Guy's. The measured coil resistance comes from the length of wire used  
n the secondary windings, this is thinner wire with lots of turns. So that 
s  why the readings are lower. A coils electrical impedance both inductive 
nd  capacitive is matched to the source that is driving it. Either the 
oints as in  an old style or a Capacitor in the new electronic ones. So the 
oils resistance  is a non issue other than to tell you if it is shorted. I 
ould as a matter of  choice us only the coil the manufacturer recommends as 
hey where designed to  match each other. Pat Orlando 1972 Yellow Pantera S/N
