My four stroke Rover EasyStart (Model No 30026w) started fine as usual and then died. No spark.

The plug is good, the gap is right and the coil is a business card away from the magnets. I suspect the coil.

Is there a way of checking a coil using continuity? My circuit tester shows open circuits everywhere; from the tip of the plug lead to every component of the coil including the tag for the cut-off switch.

Is this right? Shouldn't there be some bits isolated from each other so there is a potential difference to make the plug spark?

Thanks
