Find the fault that killing the packs or stop using aftermarket ebay garbage coil packs, OEM coil packs last decades and not a regular known fault item .

As mentioned already a coil is a really simple device with an input and an output plus a small amount of resistance in the middle. teh only coil failures I have experienced over the years has been down to corrosion of the connections normally at the spark plug end and have been fixed by either a trim and recrimp or a clean with electrode cleaner.

Do you have a multimeter as you could check the coils themselves to see if they have indeed failed although it means 12v with a higher than normal current would have had to pass through to physically overheat and melt the coil wire
