You stated in your first post the spark was orange. I wonder how you could check timming with electronic coil packs.

I got it going last night. I hated to just start throwing parts at it but I was out of ideals. I figured doing a complete tune up wouldn't be a waste even if it didn't fix it. I replaced one thing at a time so I could tell what actually fixed it if it fired up. Replaced the plugs, spark looked better but no go. I replaced the wires, nothing changed. When I pulled the cap and button I noticed a burn mark on the bottom side of the button. I didn't really see why that would be a problem but I have never seen it before. I replaced the cap and button, when I bumped the key I was suprised when she fired right up. I'm not really sure what caused the burn on the button but I guess it doesn't matter now. She's running like a champ now.

Thanks for all the input and ideals.

Jon
