Thanks Lynn, that makes sense to me now. I assume I have a 12 volt system because it come with a 12 volt battery hooked up to it but then so far it doesn't seem to keep the battery charged, the amp guage doesn't work, and the headlights don't work either so who knows what a previous owner did to it. Guess I better check the generator output with a volt meter. I am only semi sure that it is a C-263 cause I still can't match up the numbers yet. Anyway what you guys are saying explains why one of the coils I looked at in Orscheln was for a 6 volt system or a 12 volt "without" external resistance. Basically you are saying the coil, points, and condenser are 6 volt. I suppose if I can find a number on the coil on there now, it would verify that it is a 6 volt since it doesn't have a resister hooked to it.
Which would work better, a 6 volt coil without the resistor or a 12 volt coil with a resistor?

Flax provided the fibre which w
