Fred, I do like your fender mounted coil and will look to get one of those.

Glad you got it figured out. Funny how an electrical problem can mimic a fuel problem. The fender mount for the coil is stock. It comes that way from the factory. If you switch to a different one, just double check that it is compatible with your ignition.
