I haven't fixed the problem yet. At this point, it either starts right up, no problem -- or cranks forever , then starts fine 5 minutes later. Not too confidence inspiring!

As far as the coil goes, you could try a junkyard part -- that's what I did. Search in car-part.com for one near you. I think I paid about $45. It didn't fix anything, but it does rule that out (mostly). And I have a spare now. If you were around here, I'd let you have it.

I think a new one is >$200. There were a lot of used ones in my area. I see them on ebay, but you can't measure the resistance on those before you pay. Good luck, let me know how it goes.

With my truck down, I'm driving a car with a leaky sunroof. I miss the truck, it only leaked on my feet.
