All, That was what my great uncle told me. He was a mechanic for all of his life. ( Almost 50 years. Started when he was 16 ) The man could repair anything that was on wheels. Yes, E=IxR. But a coil is not a resistor. It is an inductor that has resistance in it. Also, as a resistor heats, the resistance changes. All these occur under your hood. Why are my coils marked 12 volt instead of 6 volt? All are origional or number correct N.O.S.
