Wow this coil really brought new life into my '50s Massey Ferguson MF202 tractor.  For the first time I actually felt my head nudging backwards when I stepped on the gas!  Nice bark from the exhaust showing better burning.  Lou

Works great for my old point-ignition truck and spark plugs are happy, too. Check your coil resistance first. Accel 8140's primary resistance is 1.4 ohms.
