Thanks for the replies.

Thanks guys, I am burning up points very quickly. I was told to use a 1.5 ohm resistor which just did not bring the voltage down close enough at the coil. I tried a 2 and a 2.8 but still no go. I did check the resistance of the coils and they appear to be running around .48. Shouldn't they be higher like .8 or 1?

I am guessing that even at .48 maybe I can run 2, 3 ohm resistors and solve this problem, what do you think?
