Default diDistributor/ignitor coils keep going bad???

I posted the other day bc i couldnt figure out why my car died and wouldnt start back up. It turned out to be the ignitor coil in the dist. I replaced it and everything was fine. Now, two days later it did the same thing. What could cause the coil to keep going bad????
thanks for any helP!

Usually when an ignitor or coil dies, it takes the other one with it. Replace'em as a set if you can. How does the rest of your ignition system look - cap, rotor, plugs and wires?

OEM or AutoZone crap?

I've never seen straight up OEM stuff, all brand new, die within 2 days. AutoZone stuff on the other hand....
