Default Re: Leaking coil

Benson and Patrick make a good point about PCBs . I have also read this info before and its just another good reason to avoid oil filled coils if possible. When I use to run Holly, not Holley bee hive 30.000 volt coils, they had a thin plastic housing that would easilly crack and the oil would leak out. I've got the oil on my hands before but quickly washed it off first with lacquer thinner and then soapy water. It probably didn't help me but hasn't killed me yet. I would still recommend to avoid any contact if at all possioble.
