Did you replace the coil at the same time as everything else?

If not, and it's still the TFI-IV coil, that may be your problem. Get a coil for the Duraspark II system.

Check all your connections over again. Check the coil wire. It's possible you could have broke it. Did you yank on the wires to remove them?


New doesn't mean good, I'm afraid. Let's just hope it's something simple.

You had good spark before right? Look back, and think of what you might have touched to change that?
