Coil issues..

#1 Post by Jon Tilson »

I'm having some trouble with ballast bypass issues on an 1850 and I'm thinking of going 12v...
Anyone now the Lucas numbers for a suitable 12V coil>
I think they were on here recently but as usual...I wasnt paying attention.

Also anyone know the wiring colour code for a sparkrite Tx1002 ignition unit?

It must be sad to think that I'll forget more than you'll ever know...

Arf arf...

Give him a clip round the ear for me George will you...

Mind you I suppose you will soon know more about TR7's and putting an LT77 box in will be something Ive not done...got a spare one in the shed to try one day though.

So come on lads find out that wiring colour code for me then...

I know the wiring for a Sparkrite SX2000, do you think it will be similar?

I cant imagine they would be too different...
