Ignition system voltages... - 10/23/12 12:33 AM
My engine has been breaking up above 4200 rpm with both a pertronix and standard points under the cap on the prestolite dual point distributor.
Looking at the electrical system and here are the voltages:
Alt 13.47
Pos @ ballast resistor 11.82
neg @ ballast resistor 8.26
pos @ coil 8.26
I am using an Accel 8140 coil. Does the setup with the pertronix Ignitor still require the ballast resistor?
How do the voltage readings look?
Thanks
