I have a 2.0 GA in my 72 with the proper ECU and harness.Do I need the 270 ohm resistor on my head temp wire?It runs a little chuncky on low end but has lots of rev and power on top.Will the resistor help with smoothing out the whole range of power.
Why do some systems have it and others do not?

get ecu, m.p.s., cht, numbers and check for compatability

I checked Ander's site and I have the correct ECU for the 73 GA motor it does have the control knob on top.Tonite I will look at the rest of the #'s to check for compatabilty of all systems.For some reason the mecanic put the resistor on the car.I took it off and the top end revs and power went up however then my low end and idle got a littel ruff.Should I leave the resistor off and adjust the ECU in hopes it will clear up the idle?if so witch way do I turn the knob?

leave it on if you have as stated the correct ecu for a 73 2.0 it needs the 270 ohm resistor.. the 037 ecu works with that resistor, they are made for each other, also I never recomend taking parts off your car you do not know what they are yet..
plus i doubt whomever put it on did soi unwittingly.. if your having an issue post it so you can heare some options// ,
