i was told i did not have a balist resistor i was told i have a resistive
wire ?

Re: 73 cj5
That vintage shoud have a ballast resistor. The issuie here is simply that
you have no power to the coil when the key is in the "ON" position, opnly
when it is in the "start" position. YTou need a wiring diagram showing the
starting circuit for that MY & powertrain. Then you need to replace the
missing wiring.
Did this friggin' thing run before you bought it? If so, what happened
afterwqards? In other words, what repairs or mods were done that caused this
problem?

Re: 73 cj5
I'm pretty sure that he said that he doesn't have the ceramic resistor,
but rather the OEM resistive wire spliced into the harness.
In any case, KC should measure the voltage at the [+] terminal at the coil
with the key switch in the "run" position.
