Hi have you looked at the dizzy itself? i have heard about a few problems with the air gap inside the distributor! i could be right or maybe im just talking ****e but its worth a look!

also check the pick-up wires on the side of the dizzy aint broken.

It was ok til you changed the coil today?
That's where I'd look first
