Ignition coils are very rugged and reliable, but can fail for a variety of reasons. Heat and vibration can damage the coil's windings and insulation causing shorts or opens in the primary or secondary windings. But the number one killer of ignition coils is voltage overload caused by bad spark plugs or plug wires. So the answer to your question is yes. Do regular tune ups

They also make external ignition coils and modified distributor caps to by pass the internal coil for about 100
