...It's Much Easier than that! Borrow a Coil...Start the engine, (IF) it fails again, You KNOW it's NOT the Coil! Pull the Air Cleaner and Check the Carb Accelerator PUMP...Fuel Shoots Out, Or NO FUEL! If it 'WILL' NOT Fail, then You Know it WAS the Coil! Proving a Spark at the Plug or other...does Not Prove the Coil will Not Fail in Time! And a 'Spark Test' done wrong will Blow the Coil, as the Spark will Not fire to a Ground, but will burn through the Windings, 'Seeking' ground to the Primary wiring! The very reason a novice will buy a brand new Coil, 'Bench Test' it, slip-up wrong, blow it out and then think they received a 'Bad' Coil. It only takes One Time!
