Hi guys,
I am very electrically challenged. I just bought a 55 first series ton and a half that had been converted to 12 volts. Everything is diconnected as far as gauges, headlights, tailights and ignition switch etc...The only thing that has been done is a toggle switch runs from the coil through the toggle, then to the battery, so I am running 12V to the coil all the time when I switch it ON. Should I run that circuit through a resistor? There is one hanging on the firewall but isn't being used. The alternator has been hung on the 235 (with foot starter)and has a single wire running to the battery. It also has a shorting wire on it as well. Thanks for any input. It is much appreciated. Jim
