...There is a reason to use the ballast and it's not to save the coil.
Straight from the FSM, again
"The compensating resistance serves the same purpose as in the contact ignition system, that is to maintain constant primary current with variation in engine speed."
The compensating resistance is the ballast resistor.
Ummm...sure, so for those of use who are not electrical engineers, can you expand on how the said ballast resistor ohm value actually impacts the various components of the ignition system?
I specifically am asking you to explain the following:
1) impact on ECU
2) imapct on coil
3) impact on ???
EDIT: Oh you bet I read the fine-print...I can do even better, attached please find the Accel 140001 coil install instructions...
