[QUOTE="Shmelton, post: 463066, member: 11013"] So the problem started back up, again. I checked for continuity, between the black/yellow, and ground, and there is none. I am using a new meter I trust at this point. I broke out the service manual, and am working through the trouble shooting process. I have found that the dual ignition coil is bad, at least the top half. I have continuity between the primary and secondary leads on the bottom half but not the top, so I guess I need a new coil. I’m still not sure why my spark tester isn’t showing spark on the bottom plug, but this is a start, I guess. What else do I need to dig into, or do I just replace the coil and see if that fixes her?
