Edward, You are a genius. We checked the ground on the coil first, it was OK. Then we located the resistor and checked with ohmmeter. It had continuity, but we went ahead and made a temporary jumper and bypassed it. Voila, started and ran perfectly. We I called my parts dist. however, I found you can't buy the resistor without buying the coil. He recommended I go to NAPA and pick up an automotive resistor. We did and the unit is working fine. Thanks a million.
