Carrier ignition wiring
Gidday,
Just out of interest I left the new resistor in place, removed the 'hotwire' and fitted the instrument panel back into place. I flicked the ignition switch on, applied full choke and turned the key and within a split second the engine fired into life. That would be the quickest it has ever started for me.
Voltage at the coil was 2.65volts on start up and then lowered to about 1.5 volts as the engine warmed up. I would have thought this would need to be higher for a 4.2 volt coil, but maybe not.
I'll try another resistor and keep monitoring things and see how that goes. I'll also try another voltmeter to make sure I am not getting false readings.
Cheers
Darryl
