The day finally arrived - flare project done. Picked up car Saturday. Drove the 5 mile trip home. It was running rough but it has been all winter with little running. I put in new spark plugs. Still idled rough. I would hear a crack sound while I was watching it idle. Noticed arcing from side terminal on coil to center terminal. Tried to move the car and the engine quit and it will not re-start. Bad coil? I have a new one on the way. What else could it be?
