Iv been researching around throughout the day and here’s what I’ve found. The wire that goes from the key to the ballast resistor, and then the resistor to the 12v coil is correct. That lowers the 12v power down so I don’t burn up my points. However, what was missing on my truck. The starter solenoid has a side terminal, which should also be run to the ignition coil to give me 12v starting power. So all this time Iv been starting the truck on the lesser power through the resistor. So Iv ordered a new starter solenoid with a side terminal, and a new ballast resistor since the old one has seen better days, and I will give this a shot.
