Which coil is the best? 120-130

Hello,

Just wondering which coil is a better choice for my 122. I was working last night on the 122 and noticed that the spark is inconsistant. Seems like the coil is shot. I did get it off the shelf in the garage labled "questionable," because I was in a hurry. Is this a logical thought? The plugs and wires are slightly used in another car, and the rotor and cap are new. Battery is taking a beating with testing and what not, but still good.

It has a Crane XR3000 electric unit. I've read somewhere that blue coil = points, condensor and red coil = electric ignition. Is this true? What about other brands than Bosch? I've seen plenty of others around. Some claim to be able to light up small towns or sporting events...

Thanks
