I have a outlander when running runs great but then will die. it may be idling or 12 to 22 miles in a ride. No rhyme or reason. I'm over 1000 in to repairs from the shop they have changed the fuel filters, petcock, Carburetor, and fuel pump. it still does it. when it dies it will start sometimes choked but only for a few seconds. if you leave it 2 hours or so or trailer it home it will run again. Odd
What I have done is tried the coil I pulled it out and ohm checked it and primary coil was .3 ohms. Book calls for .8-1.2 ohms at 68 degrees. I bought a new one and the new one came at .3 ohms to new from the factory. Arrrrrr
I did my own test and used a heat gun on it and the old coil and it starts at .3 and as it warms up it goes to Zero ohms... the new one starts at .3 and as i heated it up it got to 1.0 ohms.... seems odd its not in book specks but hope by changing this coil it corrects the issue.,. I know it going to zero is not good but who knows I will let you know if I get it fixed. if you have other ideas or have seen this any info would be a help.
