'92 244 - Cranks but won't start 200 1992

Hi All, I'm new to the message board but have gleaned some good advice from watching the posts, thanks for all that you contribute. This is my first post. I have a new volo in the family, a '92, 244. Engine has been running perfectly since we bought it in March. Drove it the other day, turned it off and went into a store. Came back 10 minutes later while the engine was still ho, and it would only crank - no spark. Swapped out the coil with one from our '89, still no spark. Tried it hot and cold with the same results. Then one day, heard a click in what I thought was the aluminum covered relay that is mounted near the coil under the hood. Taped it with my screwdriver, started right up, only to die on me 5 minutes later when I took it out for a spin. I've seen some posts for 740's about this being a problem with a crank sensor...do you think that is my issue or are there relays that go first? Any advice would be appreciated. Bernie
