NOTE: REMOVE OR BYPASS EXTERNAL BALLAST RESISTOR OR RESISTANCE

WIRE WHEN INSTALLING THE RECOMENDED FLAME-THROWER COIL.

Do NOT remove the ballast resistor or resistance wire if the primary resistance is lower

than speciﬁed or if you are using the stock coil.

1. To remove a ballast resistor (normally white ceramic blocks 3 to 4” inches long),

disconnect all wires on both ends of the ballast resistor. Remove the resistor from

the vehicle and splice the wires together at a single point.

2. The resistance wire is located between the ignition switch and the ﬁrewall on most

applications.

• Locate the resistance wire, cut it out, and replace with a 12-gauge copper

stranded wire or:

• Bypass resistance wire, connect a 12-gauge copper stranded wire from a 12-volt

switched ignition source to the postive (+) terminal of the coil.

SPARK PLUG GAP

In stock applications, the manufacturer’s recommended spark plug, and spark plug

gap will work best. For performance applications, the spark plug gap may be increased

up to 0.010” from manufacturer’s speciﬁcations to take advantage of the extra energy,

produced by the Flame-Thrower coil. Since PerTronix cannot test every conﬁguration, the

end user must determine what spark plug gap works best for their application.

FLAME-THROWER COIL INSTALLATION

1. Make sure the ignition switch is off or disconnect the battery negative cable.

2. Remove the coil wire from the coil tower.

3. Remove all wires from the positive coil terminal.

4. Remove all wires from the negative coil terminal.

5. Loosen the coil clamp and remove the existing coil.

6. Install Flame-Thrower coil into the coil clamp and tighten into place. Note: If the

Flame-Thrower coil does not ﬁt properly in the existing coil clamp, purchase

PerTronix chrome clamp #10002 or zinc clamp #10001.

7. Connect the wires that were removed from the negative coil terminal of the old coil

to the negative terminal of the Flame-Thrower coil.

8. Connect the wires that were removed from the positive coil terminal of the old coil

to the positive terminal of the Flame-Thrower coil.

9. Push the coil wire into the coil tower making sure that the boot is secure around the

coil tower.
