PerTronix 40511 Flame-Thrower 40,000 Volt 3.0 ohm Coil , Black

Anyone can install this, takes 5 minutes and is super easy. 2 nuts taken off, wires attached, nuts screwed on, plug pushed in. Once installed it will just work in the background, never needing to be messed with again. Required with some aftermarket distributors. Make sure you get the right ohm. Downside - Requires ballast resistors removed or your car wont want to start. That can be tougher than you think depending on your car. My ignition wire was a ballast resistor wire and I had to replace the whole wire from key to engine bay, not an easy task for a rear engined car. Had to go under the glued down carpet, then through the doublewalled firewall. Most cars probably dont have to worry about this, but if yours does be prepared.

Worked as it should.

My boat engine fired right up after installation. I like that it was a simple matter of three wires. Two to the neg. side (tachometer and ignitor, one to the pos. side. I installed the Flamethrower coil along with the Pertronix electronic ignitor that replaces the points. The total install time was about fifteen minutes.

This coil was recommended for installation of PerTronix HEI. Word of note: When installing the PerTronix HEI system in the distributor , measure the height of the rotor from the rotor point of contact, to the distributor plate BEFORE removing the distributor plate with the points. Some after market point sets have a rotor that will measure a little taller than OEM. The magnet that mounts on the distributor bumps will make an aftermarket rotor sit .060 higher inside the distributor cap, thus internally destroying the cap. Measure the height of the rotor AGAIN after installing the PerTronix HEI system !! The engine in my boat has never run THIS GOOD! Drove the boat 36 miles up the Missouri River, and 36 miles back. That's 72 miles round trip on a river, without one single hiccup. Great product.

Muy buenas.

Purchased for a four cylinder Pertronix distributor. Lower OHM coil will work, but shirtens life of pick up.

Worked well, was less expensive and faster then the other stores I get tractor parts from

Worked great. Zero issues.

Cumplió todas mis expectativas, es increíble como mejoro la ignición de mi VW sedan 1990, la chispa que genera es excelente, gracias

excelente

Item as described

Llego súper rápido, bien protegido y en excelente estado.

bought this because my 1.5Ohm coil was not enough to go with the Pertronix electronic ignition on my OMC Cobra 3.0L . Simple install and it worked perfect out of the box. with The 3.0ohms coil, engine now runs full power at full throttle. Thanks.
