The DynaTek Dyna S module/sensor operates on 12-1/2 to 15 volts negative ground, and must be used with a minimum 3.0 ohm coil or module will burn up. Using a coil with less than total of 3.0 ohm of primary resistance for a long period of time will cause the module to overheat and the engine may misfire until it cools down, or the module/sensor might fail prematurely. A metal conductor coil-to-spark plug wire, and non-resistor/copper core spark plug should be used. If the voltage drops below the minimum requirement for either module/sensor, the engine may idle well, but not rev up, or the engine may run erratic. Either module/sensor can be used with a standard-output/stock or high-output/performance ignition coil, as long as the coil has a 3.0 ohm internal primary resistor, or a ballast resistor is connected that totals 3.0 ohm of resistance. These module/sensors should not be used with magneto-type armature ignition coils, being magneto coils have a 1.0 ohm internal primary resistor. A metal core conductor coil-to-spark plug wire can be used with either module/sensor.
