I started the car this morning and ('drum roll') it didn't stall! I don't trust it yet. It's still idling lower than I think it should, but it doesn't have a tach, which I don't like. I plan on changing that.

I haven't checked the ignition amplifier because I can't find it. I thought it was on the driver's side of the engine bay, but it ain't there. I haven't swapped the coil, but it is supposedly new. It sure looks new. I have a healthy blue spark before and after a stall.

I'm running out of ideas, too. I sure enjoy the hunt, though.
