W8ACs.  I also read in the Pertronix literature, AS I RECALL!, that you can
wire it directly across the coil, and all mine are wired up that way.  I
agree that it might be better to wire it up the other way, as Bob Helt
explained, but that is certainly a less convenient to wire configuration.
Why did I do that, when I realize that it is better to wire it differently,
as well as: floss daily, brush for at least two minutes after every meal,
exercise 30 minutes/day, pray, meditate, contribute to my favorite charity,
ensure I pay all my income taxes, etc, etc.  The list goes on and on.
Sometimes there is just not enough time in the day to do everything that I
"should" do.  So I pick and chose what works for me.  You now know where
Ignitors fall.  I MIGHT rewire them some day, maybe.

either configuration?  I'll take bets on that one.  BTW, have you flossed
today??   LOL.
