Good evening all.<br /><br />I just acquired a Mallory breakerless distributor and the instructions warn to either have loom resistance wire or a ballast resistor. <br /><br />Is there a way to determing if I have loom resistance wire? My setup is a Mercruiser model 888 with a Ford 302 V8. It's a 1973. <br /><br />I don't mind buying a resistor, but if I am already set it would be a plus. Additionally, I can't imagine finding a ballast resistor locally!<br /><br />As always, all help is much appreciated.<br /><br />Regards, crt.
