Re: Ignition Coil Problem

Wires are all OK. Spark Plug Gap was .025 or less. Star manual says .020 or "about 1/32".

Fired right up with new coil.

Is there anyone making coils in the USA?

Thanks

Re: Ignition Coil Problem

I guess the question to ask is were your three coils made in China? Would be hard to believe that three went bad within such a short time no matter where they are made. There are some standards that a manufacturer has to meet. I guess the US made coil is cheap enough to see if it is the problem. Let us know if you have success and the brand of your faulty coil(s) if that proves to be the problem.
