it towed back to my house. It sat overnight. I
changed fuel filter out. It started back up. This is
the 2nd time it has done this. New battery. New

Try checking the coil with a multimeter when the condition is present. You can obtain the specs on the net. You can also visually inspect the coil. Remove it and check for any cracks on the coil or or bulges on the bottom. A loose wire going into the coil could cause this problem.
