Bypassing ballast resistor

Here's the easiest way I know of. You spoke of using male blade connectors to bypass the resistor. If so, do this...........

1...Hook a test lamp to your old coil+ wire and disconnect all 4 resistor connectors and the old ECU

2...Hook your male - to - male splice into one or the other of the two looped connectors

3...With the key in the "run" position, hook your male splice into first one, then the other of the remaining two connectors which you removed from the opposite end of the resistor.

4...LEAVE the splice connected to which of these two which lights up your lamp

5...Use the old coil wire as the power source for your new ignition.
