[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 323548, member: 7544"] Sounds like 2 separate issues. For the starting problem, the first thing I would look at is the battery (make sure it's fully charged and if it's an older battery, load test it) and the connections to the battery (make sure they are clean and tight). For the lost spark, first thing you should do is swap the plugs and make sure the one that's not sparking now will spark when installed in the other plug wire, you could have a new defective plug. Next you need to check the plug wire to make sure it hasn't gone bad. If that's good you might try swapping the coils and see if the lost spark follows the coil. [/QUOTE]
