After two minutes running up my driveway the tractor shut off as if someone turned the key off. Spark from coil was little to none. Power to the coil was OK. Wouldn't even hint of firing while cranking. Changed coil; No help. Swapped electromic ignition from a 140 that ran good and voilla, fired right up and ran great under load (mowing) for an hour.
This bad ignition is 2 or 3 yrs old. I found out it wasn't seated properly after about 1 1/2 yrs. Maybe I damaged it somehow. The good one is just as old and seems fine. I'll order a new one and also get a spare.
I haven't seen any reliability threads for these ignitions and thought I'd provide a data point. Would like to hear from anyone else who has had a problem, or how long they function before failing.
