Thanks for the help in advance.
It has a volvo aq131c 4 cylinder motor. Tow weeks ago I went to start it after being stored all year. It started up but after a few mins with the ears on it it died. I had no spark from the coil. I replaced it and put her in the water and ran fine maybe an hour. A few days later I went back out and it started missing bad while driving. Idling it didnt miss even if I reved it up. Then it just died. Now I have no spark again from the coil. I put in a new coil today but forgot which wire went where but traced the wire from the distributor to the neg side of the coil. I think thats right. But it still wouldnt start. I think its a bad coil. Why would I blow 2 coils in a week? It doesnt have electronic ignition. I ran a wire from the pos side of the battery to the pos side of the coil still no spark. maybe another bad coil? Im lost.
