Exclamation Engine stalls when it warms up

I have run into a new problem that just boggles my mind. I am working on a 1996 clubcar carryall 2 turf. It came with an FE 400 engine in it but i have changed it out for an FE290. I have a problem with it cutting out when the engine warms up. I have spark and fuel all the time and have changed out the engine because of this problem. I have changed out the starter/gen, the starter solonoid, voltage regulator, and even put in an electric fuel pump over the past few months. I have tried to bypass the key switch as well. It has a new coil with ignitor in it.

I figured out that when it starts cutting out if I pull the spark plug wire off the plug and let it arc to the top of the plug the engine roars back to life and runs great as long as i hold the wire just off of the plug. The spark is bright.

I bought the ignition coil new and had it on the 400 then moved it to the 290 after rebuilding it. could i have gotton a bad coil? It runs great for the first ten minutes or so.

You did not say you changed the plug.
Did you use old plugs on the new motor?
Seems to be a problem with the main node of the plug.
Change the plug and see.
You could still have a bad coil that is failing with heat.

Yes I did replace the plug and even tried different gaps just to be sure. Not sure if the Ignitor in the coil or otherwise mounted on the front of the motor is supposed to help the coil field to collapse as it cycles or exactly what it does.
