The original subject was "Re: 210 IH Swather Coil".
a coil running fine will not be hotter than the engine. Tells me that the running voltage 14 volts is too much for it. Can you put the old coil back on and test out the operating characteristics?
most times the starter power is full voltage while starting. When running the voltage goes to 14 volts. The coils with internal resistance has a resister that as it warms up increases the resistance to keep the coil in the proper voltage range. If this resister is not working properly the coil could be overheating and breaking down. The new coil could be faulty.
good luck
