I will try screwing out the cable tomorrow, but doesn't sound like that's the problem (as it ran fine for an hour before stopping).

I did notice that the coil was too hot to touch.

Sorry guys. This one was operator error. When I was checking by cranking the engine over, I noticed that the rotor was not turning. Turns out that when I rebuilt the distributor, I did not install correctly. My bad....
