Listers;

The next problem that just cropped up is with the '74 midget spark, I
think.  I just need to talk and get some thoughts from others if you
don't mind.  This list has no problem speaking their mind, do they?  Ha!
Ha!

The '74 runs really well most of the time, but during the last few weeks
it has died on three occasions without any warning.  While driving the
engine just stops firing and after playing with the car for 20 or 30
minutes and not really changing anything, it starts back up as if
nothing is wrong and purrs like a kitten.  Runs for maybe a day or so
and does the same thing again.  Same result....

After some thought I don't think it is the fuel system.  I think it is
in the electricals.  I am thinking that it might be a bad coil.  Maybe
after getting hot, it quits working and then cools down and starts
again.  Any thoughts about how to proceed?

Thanks,

Monty
