Great! The original plans called for 10 turns, I made 12. I am tapping in about half way so there is many extra turns. This may be the best option.
Will doing so (reducing coupling) reduce spark output? Thanks

Dan,

If you have extra turns on your primary, you can reduce coupling some by
removing a few of the inside turns.
