Ignition Module Failure

Ignition Module Failure
Just replaced the ignition module on my 92 convertible for the first time. No warning, it just stopped at the busiest intersection in my town. The only sign of something being wrong was the tach started dancing at idle a few minutes before it knocked off, but the car did not seem to be miss firing. I figured the tach was starting to fail or something to do with the tach. Question, was this a sign the module was getting ready to fail? I see where Ford had some issues with this module because of heat and location, I guess I am lucky mine lasted 27 years.

It was removed from the distributor in 1994, located mounted on a heat sink, 1995 was the last time, 5.0 was discontinued after that, '96 had 4.6, no distributor.

When I was in the business of doing EFI installs on older cars and trucks, I used brand new 5.0 HO Mustang engines from Ford Motorsports, bought 6 of them. I had to use the remote-mount TFIs.
