Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

Not today but recently...
Started her up, moving out of garage she dies...
Cranking but no start condition.
Check and she is getting fuel.

Check spark, Non-existent.
Check coil and windings are both primary and secondary are open circuits.

Pull spare coil from tool box in bed, install coil and she starts right up.

Seems to run better than late in the season last year so the coil was probably going bad with an intermittent stalling issue.
