Not sure if this would apply to the TD, but I had a similar situation
with the Midget once. Turned out the coil was getting hot because the
resistance wire was no good. If the car ran long enough it would
actually burn out the innards of the coil (went through 3 of them before
I solved the problem). Does the TD have a ballast resistor or
resistance wire? If so, you might want to check it out.

Don't assume that because you have found one problem, you have found the
ONLY problem.
