Just put new resistor on to step down the voltage to 6 volts. I am still getting 12 volts to my coil. Not sure what could be the problem

Remove the coil and resister and buy a 3 ohm coil. Made to run 12 volts.

You apparently have a 12 volt battery and an old 6 volt coil. Just buy a new coil made for 12 volt system and you will be fine. The distributor and point don't know the difference. Old coil and resistor is a patch job, will cause you problems over time... just get rid of it now.

Your system now looks something like this ?  Change the coil and resistor to one unit new coil.

Before I put the resistor on I had a ballast resistor and a 12 volt coil. The coil on there is probably 15+ years old

some coils say "needs external resistor" and some say "no external resistor needed..... for 12 volt systems.
