The ignition system starts on 12 volts and runs on 8 volts. There is a white porcelain resister mounted on the firewall. When that burns out, it will run when the key is in the start position but not the run position.

You're welcome. Back in the 60s and 70s, I used to carry one of those in the glove box because it was so common
