Are you running it hard and hot?

That is about the time the coil overheated on ours. But only when really working.

Dad put a one inch block of wood behind the coil, longer bolts, and sure helped.

They also like to boil the fuel, with the muffler and all throwing so much best at the gas tank. We moved the muffler out and vertical like other tractors, let more room for air flow and less metal throwing heat. That helped. Some reroute the fuel line or make it rubber insulated instead of the metal line so it doesn’t pick up as much heat.

But all the above is only if you are really working it, high heat.
