Fixed --- I hope!
It's too late for me to run to town for a new coil, but I think I found the problem.
I found a mounting bracket in the engine compartment with a sharp corner. Based upon the opinion of my ohmeter, it appears that the ground wire on #7, was occassionally getting shorted to the frame. I found a little tiny nick in the insulation that perfectly lines up with the sharp part of the mounting bracket.
This would explain the coil issue and why it took out the first PCM.
Perhaps, tomorrow, it will be up and running again.
Thank you so much for your help!
