I am having difficulty locating the proper application for my cat. I have found many types and resistence. (spade connections, bolts to adapt spade, and screw terminals - also resistence from .5 to 1.9 ohms) I have been told I need to read the ohms from a meter to pinpoint the exact resistence. The cat is at the Cabin and I am 60 miles away.
It has an electronic ignition (no points) I cannot locate an ignition module so am not sure if it is Duraspark. I will try and attach a picture of it in the cat. Research has given me many opinions and the servive manual gives me a Ford numbers (N-25-1 :B8A-12250 A :FEU-12250 C) When cross referenced at most part stores I get an array of choices from .5 to 1.9 ohms and connection types.
I have found a variable resistence (.75 cold and 1.5 warm) from Mallory (#700)

Any help would be appreciated to find the correct application. I replaced the coil (std-fd-471t) but the RU-4 resistor they gave me was not correct according to the mechanic so we did not replace the current one.
Any help would be appreciated. (it is a Ford 300 IL 6) Thanks.
