Hey, cliff..... Was wondering if you ever figured out your problem.
I noticed over the years that when a coil would age, the plastic material
would develop hair-line cracks (most you can't see). As the coil got hotter,
the cracks would gap more & eventual the coil would short out. After
sitting for a while it would cool back down & you could crank & go again.
It's a long-shot, but you might try swapping it/them out.....
