I did not replace the coil but I did replace the wires. I did check the spark , I believe it was good enough, it jumped 1/4 inch from a screwdriver shaft to a ground and zapped me enough so that I doped it.
The gas is mostly fresh with a little old stuff It is 5 to 1 new to old minimum. It was run this way for more than an hour so it must be mixed.It ran perfect with this gas 3 weeks ago
Is 90 really low?Would it also go up with a warm engine?
It did this before the point and condessor change also. I know you can not rule out new parts.
I really try to avoid starting fluid so I have not tried that.
I have been leaning towards a starter or battery. If I could find a rebuild kit would do it, but I don't want to trough a lot of more money at it without knowing. I guess I could take battery out and have it tested. It sucks I had a load tester but it just died. I also thought about electronic conversion but it should not be necessary .
thanks again, I will re read the sugestions and check things out this week.
