Unfortunately not. I checked for sparks again and I definitely didn't notice anything from both wires. I didn't notice any loose connections, but the ground going to the starter had a lot of rust. I didn't measure the ignition coil and ignitor box resistances. I think a properly working coil should have a 5ohm resistance, but I'm not sure of the proper ignitor box resistance values. Since I didn't detect any spark from both spark plugs, I think it suggests that the main problem is "upstream" of the coils.

Btw - it's not my day b/c I just noticed a nail in my new Pilot Power rear tire. [bang] Life happens!
Don't argue with idiots. They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
