what coil to buy
« on: May 15, 2014, 08:42:32 pm »
Hi all. I'm new to the forum and love it. I've had an 88 lt250 for about 10 years and just in the last 4 months I decided to cometely restore it. Got finished with it and with a lot of help from all of your knowledge here. I took it to sand mountain nv. and lost the ignition spark plug coil. What is all of your recommendations for a coil, OEM, aftermarket ect... I know you get what you pay for so just wanted some opinions please. Thanks.

Use an OEM coil.  If you cannot find a new one use any coil that has the same specifications for the primary and secondary resistances as the OEM coil.  Same primary and secondary resistance means it will be the functional equivalent.  Most of the time I have had problems when I upset the balance of the components when I change any ignition component that has a different resistance than an OEM component.

Cool thanks for the info. That's what I figured but I wanted to make sure there wasn't something better than stock. Thanks guys.
