Default Re: Coil melt down

My repro ignition switch terminal once rubbed on the gas tank and kept the coil on full time. Luckily I just happed to touch the coil and feel it was warm, so I found the problem right away before the coil burned up.

BTW, this is a good reminder to always look at the ammeter when leaving the car to be sure it's on zero.
