I think some of these have a resistor wire instead of a ballast resistor, are you runnning caveman points?

get your multimeter out, I might have a ballast resistor if you need one, better still go electronic If you have 12 volts at positive side of coil while engine running you need to knock it down to 9 ish otherwise things will burn out
