Improved ignition systems 140-160 1971

I can take those readings off my coil this weekend and post them for you. I have had the XR700 on my car for years but spark quality has never been effected by it. As for the shutter wheel I remember trying several of the different styles the kit comes with until finding one which fits well on the Bosch dizzy. My guess for your problem would be the coil. Keep in mind that your Bosch blue coil is not compatible with the Crane HI-6 box should you upgrade in the future. You can fins a list of compatible coils on Crane's web sight. I beleive my coil is an old Mallory Ignitor II.

Good Luck

Wayne
