And by the way, all I figured out about that resistor was it is a 2200 Ohm with a 10% tolerance.... Any help?

How 'bout this, Kevin?
A direct excerpt from the Kohler TP-2379 manual states:

In some applications a 22 ohm, 1/2 watt resistor has been placed between the key switch and the ignition coil. This has been added to prevent current feedback through a dirty or wet switch. This feedback, if not held in check by a resistor, can damage the trigger unit.
