We rigged up his old CFI/EFI style coil and it worked great.  As I understand it, coils either work, or they don't correct?

Works yes, but I have no idea how many miles are on that CFI coil, or how many were on the old school one either. Brian, you were here when the old one dies, it's doing the same thing. I'll snag another EFI coil from the JY tomorow and do some rigging and see what I get. Once I get cash new plugs and coils comes

It's Gumby's fault.

If you need it man, take it. I'm not going to be a prick about it. I wanted it, but if you have cash first, more power to ya. Before I could get it, I need a Lokar cable for the trans, a full tank of gas, alittle more wiring stuffs then I could get it. That and I think I finally found a DD I like. 85 Ranger 2.3 Auto with floor shift. Im talking to the guy tomorow but for $300, who can complain
