Stop in for a cup of coffee
I should go put the coil in and see if that alone was the problem.
It's about the only vehicle parked along the section of the park. Think I should move it.
A quick check of the primary windings showed 6 ohms.
Took one look at the contacts and figured 4 of those ohms were probably oxidation.
A little fine steel wool and
yup.
So how did I know to check the coil first instead of spark.
I had left the key in run. Seemed like the most likely item to burn out. And, because the resistor is not a ballast, but a wire in the harness, its PIA the check.
