K341s ignition coil & resistor

Recommended Posts

classicdmax

I'm replacing ignition cool today for the hell of it. Had to take it off anyways to get at the carb for maintenance. Stamped on the new coil indicates "do not use with external resistor".

can anyone please advise me how to move forward? Isn't the resistor necessary for points type ignitions?

thanks

Coils for that engine have an internal resistor. No need for an external one. 

The correct coil is a Kohler 41 519 21-S or equivilent.

So the external resistor currently in place was prob used due to type of coil used by prior owner?

Are you confusing the condenser with an external resistor?

Yes, if you have the correct coil as Bob listed.     Connect ignition switch to + coil  post and points and condenser to -coil post.
