Post subject: | Visa brown coil |
hey gang, amongst my spares i found a new Visa brown coil, i think they were used on 652 Visa's & LN/A's/... What i'd like to know is, are they ok for use with M28/1 engines on points? I seem to recall somewhere reading they weren't suitable, although that could've been for use in conjunction with a 123. Any ideas? cheers |

Visa coils are for electronic ignitions and can't be used on points/condenser. Works well 123 and all the others. |

Neil, the primary resistance of a Visa coil is between 0.6 & 0.8 ohms, compared with a standard coil's 3.6 ohms. If one were hooked up to a points system, it would be 'game over' very quickly. Only certain 123 units can handle a Visa coil, from memory the EVO & 'Blue'?, the others will be destroyed by the heavier current draw of a Visa coil... ![]() ken.
