Reply To: Induction Coil

Hi David

I had an identical problem a couple of years ago with my 11B. Car would run ok for a few miles then stop at a junction or similar and not restart for an hour or two. I was convinced at the time that it was a fuel problem, even stripping and rebuilding the carb by the side of the road one time. I had discounted the ignition side as all was new – electronic distributor etc. Eventually I replaced the new – well 2 or 3 year old –  coil with the original 60 year old SEV one  and all was well. Still is….. Must have been the new coil breaking down inside when hot.

I note you have an 11B but it is 12 volt – does that mean you have a relatively new coil???
