[Roadsters] early 67 1600 won't run

[oliver]

well, I finally solved the biggest problem: following this list carefully, I
had selected a MSD coil for my car as recommended.  but i have removed the
ballast resistor.  ergo the biggest problem i believe.  car runs amazingly
better on a Lucas Sport.
 
so, i am now entertaining offers for a virtually unused MSD coil, in still
mint condition, for a car with the ballast resistor.  i also have, btw, a
virtually unused ballast resistor should anyone be interested.  please contact
me off list.
 
now on with the temporarily interrupted restoration!!!!!!!!!!!
