I hear what your saying but you had an old shitty PMC. Mine has been working great all summer.

Anyway I am now suspecting the coils. I have been aware that they have been dying for a while now. Yesterday I noticed a distinctive gas odor. My guess is that the coil has died and is not firing.

Thats my guess at this point.

I couldnt find a cheap compression tester. I will just go grab one from my dads house.But i am almost certain that the engine is fine.



Its gotta be the coils. Luckily I have a spare set.
