OK so to go into detail, my '93 Accord EX has been experiencing random jerks every now and then when the engine cuts out real quick, once it stalled and wouldn't start. I've been doing alot of reading and narrowed it down to either the ignition coil of the igniter.
I have a feeling the coil is weak because it failed one of the 3 resistance tests recommended by the haynes manual (passed the other 2 just fine)
Now I also have a feeling the igniter might be at fault also, because I've been having issues with the tachometer jumping around randomly at times, and from what I understand, one of the output ports on the igniter is for the tachometer. Also I read some symptoms of bad igniters and it sounds like what I'm experiencing.
So does it sound like a sure bet that they are both bad and needing to be replaced, or can I possibly get away with one or the other? Since I'm broke. I'd like to try one at a time, but I don't want to burn out a new coil from a bad igniter, or vice versa.
