Looks like to was a bad coil after all. I swapped the coils and the problem swapped sides. Put a new coil on last night and wa-la... runs like a champ and doesn't even need choke to start...thanks all!

Glad to hear she is running.

Now take the fan shroud off and clean each cylinder cooling fins all the way around each cylinder. This is a yearly maintenance deal in your engine manual. More if you bag or scalp in early spring. Neglect this and you are looking at engine damage later on.

Also decarbonize each cylinder. Again another couple year deal in you manual. Depends on how many hours you mow. This keeps chunks of carbon out of the bores and prevents scoring.
