In a message dated 96-10-12 12:32:01 EDT, you write: << Can anyone say of the VW system uses a resistor, or is this an old fashioned method? >> The VW vanagon ignition system does not use a ballast resistor...which is usually present for starting purposes.The coil can fail w/o having a ballast resistor.Do not be confused w/ the resistor attached to the coil for radio suppression.This will not affect the coil since it merely filters the ecess ufarads to ground.
