Allan I am the one from the Oliver forum w/ the elect ign problem on the 1850 gas. It was running just fine, feeding cattle when for no reason it died. Checked gas ok, then spark at coil no spark, though bad coil replaced coil same problem.checked voltage at resitor seemed a little low changed it out, same problem. looked at instructions that I saved from when I installed elect. ign. noticed that I should have red wire coming hooked to + side of resitor, not coming from + side of coil, tried that some spark but mostly when I would stop cranking. Replaced coil again w/ coil w/ internal resitor, helped some but still not enough. Tried my 770 w/ point system and boy what a hot spark knocked the &*^%$# out of me. Will try again tuesday with a new 1000 amp battery and cable and new wire from battery to switch and see if that helps. Hope this makes some semse. This by the way is Petronix system, and I called the Petronix 1 800 # and they told how to check the ignitor it checks ok, but have ordered a new one but has not come in yet. Thanks in advance and any help will be greatly appreciated
