Time for me to eat crow! I took the coil and had it tested at an auto electric shop late yesterday. Problem was that it was right near quitting time and they did not sell coils. They checked the resistance of the primary and secondary but something just did not seem correct about their procedure. They told me they got an open circuit on the primary and 5+ ohms on the secondary. I think they just wanted to get rid of me so I went to an electronics store and bought my own test meter. The correct readings for my coil were 1.3 ohms on the primary and 56,000 on the secondary. The 1.3 is in range for the primary and I would bet the 56,000 is in range for the secondary for a 6 volt coil. At this point I would have to say it was not the coil and I did not get a new one! I will keep you updated as I do additional testing. Thanks again John T. and all of you who insisted that the problem would not be the coil.
