      From theory to practice




        Do you have a classic                                   A loss of 10% of the battery volt-

        Volkswagen nearby to test? Turn                         age due to resistances built up
        on the ignition and measure the                         between battery and ignition coil.

        voltage between the positive                            Just think of the losses that can

        terminal of the ignition coil and                       occur in the ignition switch when
        the ground. We did that on a                            it is no longer in optimal condition

        1200 VW with a 6 V installation.                        (see edition 08 page 11).

        The voltage was 5.37 V. When

        the points are closed, the
        voltage even drops to 4,44 V.
