You need a good tune up, our car seams to eat ign parts easy. I went in so many circles a while back for a month or so, I changed everything under the sun and new plugs, wires, cap n rotor fixed it all, even though it was no where near time for it.

Have you checked the coil in the dark for leaking??? It will almost tick or snap kinda as the juice leaks out. People blow them HEI units all the time by not getting the thermal grease right or when the ign system get picky the coil will leak.

I went through 3 stock coild and end up back on my original accel one.

hmm no didn't check for that, it started this after i got the car back from having the alt. installed, (whitch was screwed up and had to take it back) and i have very recently replaced the coil, (last week) could it be the tps not adjusted corectly?
