I have a coal furnace that I am probably going to put an adjustable thermostat and count down timer on.

You can fix short cycling with a time off delay. I use them on my air compressors so they unload before turning off to reduce the power surge they create.
The time off delays are available in just about any voltage and can range in delay from fraction of a second to hours.
