I come belatedly to this subject.
I have driven four Healeys since 1965.
I have weathered most of their problems.
When I hear of disfunctions related to warm or hot engines I look to the
coil.
Some coils have an internal ballast resistor; such coils become hot to the
touch because all of the
IxIxR heat ends up in the coil, making it less efficient. Many such coils
have been sold as high-output replacement devices. They probably work well in
cooler climates.
Your problem might be resolved by installing a coil that requires an external
ballast resistor; such coils run so much cooler. An added attraction; cold
starting is much improved.
