As per my other post, I recently solved a misfire on my 4.2 Supercharged by replacing a melted ignition coil.

I've been thinking over the last couple of days, what would cause a coil to melt? Would it just be old age and the insulators on the coil failing or could there be something on the car?
The plug from that cylinder didn't look bad when I removed it either. I've since replaced them all with the proper NGK originals. The ones I removed were Denso but I can't imagine that making any difference.

I've done a couple of miles in it since replacing the coil as I put it in the garage to do a few other jobs on it including replacing the plugs, etc. After doing that short trip the coil didn't feel hot to touch.
Having had one Range Rover catch fire already, I don't fancy having another with something like this so was wondering what everyone else's thoughts were?
