Coils
I'm interested in getting an extra set of good working coils for my 22. I figure this way, I can get my current set sorted out and still be able to drive the car. Am I wrong in thinking some owners keep a spare set? Where is the best deal on coils?

Re: Coils
I have an extra set and I keep them with my ECCT. You can get sets from Brent Mize, Ron Patterson, Andy Loso, and Luke Chennell(sp).

Re: Coils
John, I find an old friend Mike in Eden Valley, MN does coils too.
Some folks keep one extra coil for the just in cases but you aren't crazy in wishing for a set of four HOT coils.

Re: Coils
Coils are in, carb was dry, got fuel flowing again and I'm not getting a PEEP out of her. I'm sweating my nuggets off but the car won't even HINT at starting. Gonna try once more and then it's shower time and beer o'clock.

Re: Coils
Choked it for about 10 pulls, had my daughter in the car ready to advance timing if it fired and sure enough, when I cranked the handle through at least two compression strokes, it started. Ran really rough until I turned the mixture adjustment clockwise almost two turns. Let me see if I can post the clip of it running...

Re: Coils
I was on the way to our 4th of July parade when a coil failed (100 year old poor solder joint.) Pulled a spare from under the seat and was on my way. I keep two spares in the car....one for me, one in case someone else needs one... I bought my spares from Ron Patterson.
