In both cases the switch was faulty - mine was dead and on my friends boat it was "intermittent". Maybe your switch is weak, faulty or intermittent. It is however a small expense and an easy test, maybe a little awkward to work on.

I thought about the possibility of the switch, even tho it seems to be functioning correctly, and was replaced last year. Plan on replacing the dist cap, all plug and coil wires, and new plugs probably Tuesday (ordered from Moyer for delivery Monday) Hope that fixes it! If not I'll try bypassing the switch. Thanks for the help!
