I have a few Ignition Coils and cant seem to get them to do anything with the JT.

I would suggest this as the best way to hook a JT to a flyback or ignition coil. I have not done this yet. Please let me know if it works.

Hi Bill,
Spikes again.
I bet you are right about that.

I am posting the pic yucca gave me on the other thread because it is like a jt with secondary sort of. (on acid...)

@Altrez I think you are connecting to the wrong wires, maybe.
And they do make them with resistors. I was glad to find one without the extra resistor!

I dont, but I will take some pictures.  I wish I had the program you have but I have a mac.

I will check out that your post next door.  That topic has most of my interest for the last few weeks.

Thank you @stprue !
