My '53 3100 runs fine at idle, but only goes a couple miles before quiting on me. After sitting for 20-30 minutes, I can go another couple miles. Trying to exclude problems....if my 6V coil measures 1.5 volts across the primary, does that mean it's good or do I need to do further testing? In addition, I noticed that the coil box says...No external resistor needed....I DO have an ignition resistor. Do I need to take the resistor out?
