Yep, that's my other suspect. Apparantly tested awhile
back but we're gonna re-try.
As for Patrick's suggestions, that's how we know there's no
spark - the center wire from the coil is being held near
close to the intake - spark jumps, but just that one time.
We've also swapped ICU / knock boxes with no change in
symptoms.
