I've had two coils fail. One was on a '53 Ford but it was easy to see
the problem. The darned thing split open and arced like mad. The other
was on a '56 Olds. The engine would start but stalled when the auto
tranny was put into gear. Found that when I noticed that there was a
pool of oil under the coil on the intake manifold. Those old AC coils
used oil for a dialectric.
