Na, just use this one though:



Not mentioned in the pic, when I hook up this transformer to a resistor plug the plug is too hot to touch in 60 seconds, non resistor don't get hot at all.

There is also a audible difference between the two.

Makes sense, especially on a " Vintage" 25 year old "foreign" car in my case but so far the Magnacores are doing fine, probably better than some OEMs that have been sitting around in a warehouse for who knows how many years.....Thanks, Desert
