TFI module problems...
 

ok well got new pickup coil for my distributor.. fixed part of my problem.. I have purchased now 3 TFI modules from autozone made by WELLS. They seen to last about 5 mins till they heat up and die..what is causeing them to fail? is there a problem in my harness or are they just junk? anyone use the wells units? any help would be great.. thanks!

Are you putting the dielectric? grease on the back of it before you install it? Other than that I don't know what to tell ya. Sorry that's not much help. What I do know is that I'm running a Wells on my 88 and haven't had any problems with it. I put it on when the original Ford one died. It's been my experience that Wells makes good replacement parts. I even have one of their MAF sensors in my C&L.

I use the grease they give me with the package.. that should be ok right?

Question for you Drastik.. I pulled my distrubutor this morning and I was looking at my Gear, and the bottom of it, and i see serious heat marks, also When i pulled the distributor shaft apart, I noticed the little flat bearing was digging into the distributor case itself.. Could the entire distributor housing be bad and causing serious friction therefore buring up my TFI's? My distributor gear doesn't look so good... Its a freash cam in there i hope it didn't cause damage to it.. I have the F303 Cam..
