The coil is mounted with a standard coil mount like you buy at the auto parts store, no insulation. I never heard of insulating the coil/mount from the frame. I'm thinking there's an issue with Mels coils but I've been wrong before. Would be nice to find a substitute coil so I could try it. But no one can tell me how to compare coils. I figured it would be by measuring resistance and making sure they match but don't know if that's the way to go or not.
