Don LC gives the straight scoop. That's the way my 2N with a 6V coil has been operating for quite some time. On the other hand, if you do have a 12v coil, you may still need a resistor (just not the same value). And the resistor (if needed) can still go between the ignition switch and the top of the coil -- as Don said, it doesn't matter where it goes as long as it's somewhere in the circui. While some 12V coils may not need a resistor, every one that I've seen for the 9N/2N/8N front-mount distributor does. If the coil isn't built to handle the full voltage developed by the alternator on a 12V system, one of the symptoms will be that the points don't last (the other symptom can be the coil overheating -- and even cracking open).

When Push Comes to Shove - by Dave Patterson. When I was a “kid” (still am to a deree) about two I guess, my parents couldn’t find me one day.

I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”.
