[QUOTE="ozziedog, post: 637848, member: 13810"] [I]Don’t quote me here. But from memory[/I] a ballast coil works at a lesser voltage about nine volts I think. This was to help older cars start as they were using a lot of battery power just to crank them over. A non ballast coil operates at twelve volts and is fairly standardised now days. A lot of stuff like that came and went as they weren’t really fab ideas when they came out and mostly disappeared on the Brit scene as they left positive earth behind and went negative earth across the board.
