Good deal! After you get the coil replaced, check wet fuel level (float setting). Because the engine didn't continue to keep running I suspect the fuel level is maybe low which could cause it not to be able to draw fuel through the carbs ventures' correctly. The Holley's have a screw in plug on the side of the fuel bowl a little above the center line near the fuel inlet fitting take it out an see if you can see where the fuel level is. If its near the bottom of the hole then it's about right, if it runs out when you pull the plug then the float setting his to high. If you cant see the fuel or it's quite a bit below the hole the float setting is too low. Later on when it's running and idling good the fuel level will need to be rechecked. Good luck
