79 CBX Running 1/2 power UPDATE.
New discovery and symptom:
*** Discovered that I'm getting spark on all 6 only for the first 10 seconds, then cylinders 2 & 5 fail to spark. Both these are tied to the #3 coil (on the right side). After pulling the plug wire out of the coil and sticking a screw driver into it in order to arc a spark against the frame, I got NO spark.
It looks like this coil went bad.
