Hi:
New here. I have an older Murray 21" lawn mower (1993 vintage) with a Tecumseh 4.0 HP engine. The Murry model number is 21673x92a. It has run fine for almost 30 years but started an issue this season. It starts right up on one pull then dies immediately. After that one start it won't start at all until the plug is removed and cleaned from unburnt gas. It seems to have been slowly misbehaving over the last year or so. I tried the following: new plug, fresh gas, checked kill switch which is working fine, tried loose fuel cap in case vent not working. I would like to check ignition coil. Took it off and Ohm reading from kill switch terminal to ground is ~ .25KOhm, Ohm reading from plug terminal to ground is ~ 4KOhm. Not sure if those readings are in range or not. The coil has this number on it: 3064, I searched current coils for sale on Internet but that number does not come up. Any thoughts what to check next and where I could find a 3064 coil if that might be the issue? Thank you.
