Coil is grounded?? Check the wiring and insulators going into the Distributor. They ground out inside the distributor. Alsos een bad bad coils break down under load.

do the points open and close, opening and closing the circuit to ground on the negitive side of the coil? ? make sure your coil's outside case is grounded?

Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
