Re: coils

I've seen coils with multiple cracks that worked fine. You may try to run it at night with the cover off to see if any of the cracks are leaking spark to ground. On the other hand if your motor has no spark at all, it is unlikely that all 3 coils failed at the same time.

Re: coils

You should replace the cracked coils to avoid problems in the future, but that probably is not the cause of your present problem. Unless you are just plain that unlucky.
