Guys I need to replace my coil.It is leaking oil and in a coil that is not good. What would you suggest? Also what are the stock coil resistance specs and how hot of a coil can I run with the points?

i've heard of people running msd boxes with the stock points. so i'm not sure if any certain coil will kill it.

I found the cheapest one I could buy about 15 dollars and bought two. One is still in the box sitting behind the seat. Keeping it company are a water-pump a voltage-reg, an alt. a set of points, dist cap, rotor, condenser and a ballast resistor among other friends.

Some cold, dark night a long way from home, it will pay off. If nothing ever does happen, that is a bigger victory.

you sure are prepared. heh. when i bought mine it came with a bunch of spare gaskets, exhaust, intake, head, couple others. spare voltage regulator but no condensor. carb rebuild kit, some tail light lenses... now that i think about it most of mine are still in good shape, i'll inventory what i have and post up what i'm willing to part with in another post. prolly nothing tooo rare...

Forgot about the fuel pump under the seat. The extra water pump and fuel pump came with the truck. At fifteen dollars a coil is a coil is a coil. I left my ignition on once and my air cleaner housing still has coil blood on it.
