[6pack] Coil question-'75 TR-6

[Bill Wellbaum]

Coming home yesterday cruising on the expressway my TR-6 began to miss
intermittantly.  The miss devolved into bucking, snorting, spitting and I
ended up creeping up my street in first gear--the car is undriveable.  The
only thing I could find out of ordinary was the coil--it was hot to the touch.
Do coils get really hot when they fail?
