I have 2 coils on a 20 hp kohler command. They are like lawn mower coils, powered by magnets on flywheel. Engine runs just fine. Problem was when I turned the key off, shorting out the coil, only one coil would stop making a spark. So I bought a new coil, replaced the left coil first. Same problem. So I replaced the right coil. Same problem. Now I really out of ideas. I took covers off for the third time and was going to replace both coils with used coils off the 18 hp kohler. I was going to run new grounding wires and connect a ground wire to both coils to make sure coils were properly grounded. Then I discovered when I replaced the right coil, I forgot to connect the kill wire. Here is my sign. Now everything works as it should, finally.
Have you ever heard of a coil making a good spark, but won't stop when shorted out?
