It's not like a coil on an automotive engine, it is a magneto that is triggered by magnets on the flywheel, so has to be mounted next to it. It is also a part that doesn't go bad easily or often. The engine really should be pulled and cleaned occasionally, so it's not that big of a deal.

I read somewhere that this model has spark assist modules too. They are in between the coil and plugs supposedly.

I lost a coil on a new to me 1864 last year. When I pulled the engine I found where the PO had replaced one of them. I went ahead and changed them both. They had set the gap wrong and the flywheel had eat into the new coil. So in your situation I would spend the extra money for the other coil, just to make sure you are not pulling the engine again next year.

Engine is off. Shroud is off. Coils are visible now. Any advice on testing and replacing them?

Downloaded the manual and tried to test the coils as stated. Maybe I'm just dumb with electrical things, but I can't get readings on them. They were really rusted up so I sanded them down as well as the magnet on the flywheel. Hate to buy 2 new coils just because I'm too ignorant to properly test them.

Replace the one on the cylinder that is misfiring.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
