My 51 8N starts great and runs fine for a few minutes and then suddenly dies. Acts like it ran out of fuel. I've checked the whole fuel flow thing with no problems. I'm wondering if the coil is bad, it's a converted 12 volt system now. What type of coil would I need, just a regular coil from Advance Auto or what? I'd sure appreciate any help anyone can offer, thanks, Marc

You may want to try jumping across your ignition switch when it dies to see if that will cure the problem. A bad switch has those same symptoms and switches are cheaper than coils last time I checked. FWIW

I HAVE A 12 VOLT COIL THAT DOESNT REQUIRE A BALLAST RESISTOR THAT WORKS GREAT. THESE COILS WILL MEASURE ABOUT 3.5 OHMS. SEE IF YOU HAVE A BALLAST RESISTOR IN SERIES WITH YOUR COIL. I AM NOT SURE WHETHER YOU CAN FIND A 12V COIL LIKE THIS AT ADVANCE OR AUTOZONE. IF YOU USE A 6 VOLT COIL YOU WILL NEED A BALLAST RESISTOR. YOU CAN PROBABLY GET A 12V COIL FRON JUST 8N'S. GOOD LUCK
