The coil temperature will rise a little when the engine is running, but if it's getting too hot that's generally an indication of damage to the coil or that the coil is wired improperly.
coil is shorting out , replace the coil.
the pick up coil will work when it is cool but not when it is hot because when it is hot it will expand and cause a short replace the pickup coil and use dielectric grease when replacing it. Well my Chevy had the same problem and my jeep is a 90 so just guessing.
Check to see if your getting 9.5 volts to the coil hot wire if so, the coil is faulty due to broken windings internally.
I've got a better question, why is this question in the Chevy venture forum ?
check the ignition coil when it heats up it loses contact when it expands with the heat.. if you let it coll for 20 min ant it starts I would say it is the coil.
ignition switch wired wrong . wire from coil hooked to hot post instead of switched post

could be that the coil is getting hot and wont restart until it cools down.
Probably has a sticky brake caliper or sticky brake caliper sliders. Who ever replaced the brake pads should have seen that.
It is important to know the symptoms of a bad car part. The symptoms of a coil going bad would be having a trouble starting and running the car, the coil getting hot, and poor fuel economy.
You can check for an instruction sheet at the manufacturer's website, but most tachs have a black wire for ground, a red wire that is hot, a white wire that is hot, and a green wire that goes to the negative or tach terminal of the coil.
