I have this tractor that suddenly lost spark. Full spec of the engine is FB460V-AS26. I have replaced the ignitor, not with the oem as it is very expensive and figured (hoped) they are all pretty much the same, spark plug, and spark plug cap. I still have no spark. I have disconnected the small wire to the coil and still no spark. I then plugged in the ignitor direct to the coil but isolated that circuit from the rest of the mower so there should be no safety switches getting in the way. I am leaning toward a bad coil, but they are $140ish and don't want to drop that on a hunch. The thing that makes me hesitant is the coil bench test fine. 13.3k ohms on the secondary and .2 ohms on the primary. I don't know what the figures are actually supposed to be, but my experience on other machines tells me this isn't too out of the ordinary. Any other suggestions before I drop the cash on a new coil just to try it?
