Unless a catastrophic mechanical timing failure. Re-Read the instructions, cautions and check the gap and revisit the install procedure before jumping out the window. It's not the coil. There is something about using te old condenser mentioned. If the points condenser is in the Pertronix circuit and is used by the circuit, that is a weak spot. Leaving key on will burn out some generations of Pertronix. https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0247/6913/4628/files/1168LS.pdf
