I'll keep y'all updated.
Wow, thanks for taking the plunge for us on that one! It would be nice to find a freeking solution, eh?

I've now gone through 3 sets or 9 total coils in the front (all used) and 2 sets or 6 total coils in the rear (also used). I've only tried taping one rear set and one front set, but I would think that if the coils were my problem, I would have noticed something during the course of 15 different coils!! Like I said, I just don't think my problem quite fits the description of the typical coil problem.

I'm gonna try to get some 1/4" steel plate and drill three holes in it. That way I don't have to fabricate an entire motor mount, but it will have the same effect. I'm confident that thats my actual problem. Hopefully I can do that relatively soon.

I'll keep you guys updated. And keep the ideas coming, we'll figure it out sooner or later!
