Need help restoring my 40-180 - SUCCESS
#18

Hi All;
Sorry, If I might have created some confusion on my posting.. I didn't mean that you should rewind your coil, but, that it was possible, IF you needed to.. I agree that it is best to leave it alone, unless shown otherwise, by your ohm readings.. And even then, the last resort would be to rewind..
If Jerrys posting is a little confusing, clip one meter lead on one of the coils leads, or terminals and use the other lead and go arround the coil until you get a reading.. IF you do not get any reading, go to the next lead or terminal clip to it and use the other meter lead and go arround looking for its mate..Make a diagram of the coil on a sheet of paper with six little circles arround the bigger one representing the coil form itself and as you find what connects to what draw it out and show the resistance you find.. Eventually you should have two coils and one with two taps.. Hope my rambling make sense..
THANK YOU Marty
