You probably don't have a bad coil I say that only because they don't seem
to go bad very often, especially if it went bad all at once (they usually
fail slowly). But it is possible.
There are a lot of things to check and that can go wrong, I don't even know
where to start, but coils aren't all that expensive so if you think thats
it, replace it, but based on my experience its probably the last thing you
are going to check... A multimeter, swappable parts and a lot of reasoning
is your best bet.

DOH! I got it thanks!!!
Jumpering didn't work so I guess it is dead. There isn't another way to
test a tach is there?
Guess I'm looking at eBay or repair.
Thanks to everybody who told me to look up :)
