How much current does the Foil Coil Pack Draw
Irony - 8/10/15 at 10:13 AM

I have two Ford Coil packs for my Megajolted V8. The connections supplied with the coil packs are the standard Ford ones but they don't allow for mediumish gauge wires. How much power do they draw?

IŽd think very little.
Punch in the spark is due to the high voltage generated by the difference in the number of windings.
And as the coils are energized a very short time each time the coils fire, wire doesnŽt need to be that big.
Stock wire size should suffice.
I could be wrong.

6 to 8 amps.
