    I first suspected the LOS but didn't see it had one. I was looking for something like a honda has-A visible sensor and an LED. The weird thing is it ran fine for the first couple of minutes and then started to act up. I'll look into it tomorrow. Worst case I have a spare coil.

    So it was the low oil shutoff. Disconnected it and it stays running. Looks like I have a extra coil now.
