[Ford-ferguson] Resistor & condensor 8N

[Ace Russell]

I've heard different things about whether to keep the inline resistor in the
circuit for a system that's been converted to 12V. It's a front-mount
distributor, and the parts book at my local shop shows only one condensor --
doesn't distinguish between 6V and 12V systems. Something's heating up I
guess, and causing a  power loss after about 15 minutes of heavy work
(bushhogging). I hear lots of things about the coil, but I've tried 2
different 12V coils, and the breakdown happens with each, so I'm suspecting
something else.

Do I need the inline resistor?
Is there a 12V condensor?
Any other ideas?
