Calm down, take a breath and let your reasoning skills come back. Also, turn off the caps lock. You've made quite a few posts in a short time regarding this, and this is the only one I've read. What problem were you having that caused you to change the distibuter and coil, and TFI? Have you checked to see if you have power coming to your coil on the battery side? Have you checked your onboard computer to see what error codes it may be storing? You don't say anything about what your car is, but I assume from your tag it's a 95, and I assume since it's in this forum it's a 5.0. A little more information and a little less emotion will help you to get to the root cause of your problem.

you might try your ignition control module a pesky lil bastard mounts to your distributor and goes out almost as frequently as the solenoid on the fender

Ok, have you checked to see if you have 12V going to the coil from the battery when the switch is on? According to the wiring diagram at Autozone (http://www.autozone.com/images/cds/g...3d801ddb57.gif) it looks like fuse number 15 in the I/P fuse panel should be a 10 amp fuse that supplies power to the coil. Have you checked it?
