Default 2000 Club Car engine trouble

I have a 2000 Club Car stretch with a fe350 engine in it. I been having trouble with it stopping all of a sudden. If I sit and wait it will fire back up and run fine. It was hot about 90 degree outside could the motor have been getting hot? vapor locking? could it be the coil? I checked and it is getting fuel

Put a spark tester on it and see if your loosing spark, coil could be heating up and loosing spark till it cools I have seen this problem before. Always diagnose first.

I am leaning toward the coil, is it difficult to change the coil on these engines?

I have found the best and I think the only way is to remove the engine. that's how I do it anyway. not a bad job to do just clean the engine before you remove it. makes it more enjoyable. There is just one nut on the back side of the engine that's a pain other then that its easy.

do I have to set the gap on the coil with a feeler guage? or does it just bolt on.

I don't want to steer you in the wrong direction setting the gap is most likely the proper thing to do but I always bolt it right on and set it as close to the flywheel without any contact. works for me.

The air gap for the coil is .012", using a bronze feeler gauge.
I heard of people using a matchbook cover also!
