Ignition 444-544 1964

Hi Phil,

I have to ask how a resistor and or a transformer (coil) can heal itself by cooling off?? My personal and professional experience leans toward solid state parts (transistors (switching), chips, etc. showing this type of slow death because of overheating caused by over voltage and or high ambient heat(the mortal enemy of solid state devices.) I also have dealt with Crane products of the ignition variety and have found them no less susceptible to heat that is produced by ANY source, whether over voltage, high current draw,or simply ambient heat after a prolonged period (15 years).
Good to hear from you again!! As always, a pleasure!!
