But I think you are not done yet. You said: "I am running a brand new Bosch blue coil which I measured as having very close to 1.5 Ohms. That should not need any other resistor, right?" With your 12V, that will allow too much current, will cook things. You want about 3.0 ohm, either a 3 ohm coil with no resistor, or use your coil with a 1.5 ohm resistor.
See post #23.
