thanks for the insight. online sells a new coil by bosch for 37 bucks.... local store sells it for 78.....

it used to gradually go out... before it would speratically die.... almost immediately after I start it... i'd let it sit... and then it'd start fine. and be problem free for months... it started to get worse. and then now, won't start...... i'll get a new rotor just so I have a new one, they are only $8.....
