Unhappy Horsepuller please?

Thanks for all of everyones help here firts off, ...secondly I need to know about the ignition resistor. Where is it, and WHAT is it??? We have found referremce for it in the manual, but no picture or location for it. We called the auto parts store for help on it, and they could not tell us either. They couldnt tell us what it looked like, or where it was etc...(they ony know it costs 30.bucks) lol...Is it a unit or just a wire or?????? Just where is it?

It's a wire. It's between the ignition run switch and the BAT connection on the coil. It reduces the voltage to the coil.

Do a search for "Duraspark" and you'll fnd many post on the wiring - also look on "The Ranger Station" web site for an explanation and wiring diagrams. The resistor or ballast wire is below the dash, connected at the ignition run terminal of the switch.
