Hi, I have a Volvo Penta AC170, The ballast resistor that goes inline before the coil has broken in two. I cannot find a replacement so I am looking for a aftermarket part. Can anyone tell me what the ohm reading should be for the resistor?
Thanks
 
Depends upon the coil...many are marked on the case...usually. on the GM-based engines, a 1.5 ohm ballast resistor is adequate...
