Lumenition On An Amazon 131
I need to replace the coil on my Amazon. Does anybody know a model of coil suitable for use with Lumention Optronic ignition? I am told it will need to be 3-3.5 ohms. All I know is that my current unit 4.5-5 amps. What the heck does ohms mean?
Help please! Thanks |

Ohms is unit of measure for resistance. Amps is current. Volts equals current times resistance.
Where did you get the spec for your current coil? I have never heard of one being specified in terms of current before. I would have thought that your stock coil would be fine with the lumenition system. |

I've fitted lumenition to my Amazon and it works fine with standard coil, giving a far stronger spark (this may mean that you may not need to change you coil after all). If you still do then any coil from a 12V non balast resistor type ignition will work. Also luminition produce their own coil which would be perfectly matched to their ignition unit.
hope this helps. nick. |

Thanks for your help. It transpires that a standard coil does suffice.

Thanks. I am going to use my existing standard coil and see how I get on.
