Glad to hear the problem's solved. I never use TVH for electronic parts unless I have to (at customer request or backordered thru OEM).

Where did you source the ignition coil? If it's a TVH that could be your problem. I'd source an original Hyster part.

It's strange you only lost cyl #2- these are waste spark systems so you should have lost 2 cyl's at the same time.

If you know the truck came out of the local hyster dealer? Try enter the zip code. Other wise call a dealer & have them come out & change it.

Strange that it started as one cylinder and then you lost all four. You will need to check all the related wiring from the coil packs to the ecu. This could also be a crank sensor or a cam sensor. Normally you will get a error code if one of the sensors is faulty. Do you have access to a good ECU? I would start with that.

According to studies published in the English Journal of Medicine, the impact of daylight savings is revealed by a 24% increase in heart attacks on the Monday following the spring shift forward. When clocks move back in autumn, heart attacks drop by about 21%, suggesting that loss of sleep is an important driver.
