Default New parts fail too…

I just replaced my ignition amps and could last week with Bosch parts. A coil died on me today on a leaf drive 40 miles from home. Had to borrow a '76 911 to get home (now that's a different ride!). Only had 46,000 original miles on it. Not my style I can say. Clutch is funky going into floor.
Brought one of my flatbed trailers up and towed it home. Old spare coil and it runs like perfect again.
Lesson in this trip:
Always follow your troubleshooting flowchart even if the parts are new or you'll end up driving a 911 😄
