Bob, if you are using an aftermarket ignition system like the MSD you can eliminate the ballast altogether. If you are running the stock Ford ignition box they do develope a problem that you described. Having to back off the key while cranking is usually in the box itself. There is a terminal on the fuse block for a 12 volt ignition source if you wanted to do that. I don't think you need to. Sounds like one of the problems I discussed. Good Luck!
