How did you determine that your getting no spark at the coils after this shutdown?

Normally things don't mysteriously fail one minute (or 10 in this case) later.

Note also to never, ever, shutdown a rotary after starting cold until it warms up.
Otherwise you will be seriously flooded. If you have a strong ignition and battery you
can restart a flooded rotary after about 4 cranks, otherwise deflood by removing plugs,
cleaning, drying and crank with out plugs to clear out the chambers.

Also note that when the plugs are flooded its like a short to ground for the spark so there
won't be any indication of spark.
