Well, thanks to everyone's input (esp. Yau-Man who provided the exact coil checking method I was looking for), I traced my troubles to a bad coil, replaced the offending part, and am now back on the road. One last question, though...am I treating a symptom of a greater problem? In other words, why would the coil go bad? I realize the bad coil covered a lot of miles, but coils seem like the kind of part that goes bad generally for reasons other than mechanical failure. Any ideas...???
