Here's my story ... this is a '91 TEG

Car started acting like it needed a tune-up. I neglected to bring it in
right way. My bad.

Car stalls out while driving it. No starty. So I tow it to the mechanic. He
finds the ignition coil is burnt and replaces it. I drive it home and my
"check engine" light goes on briefly which causes me to worry so I bring it
back. He looks at it, can't see any problem. Two days later, car stalls out
while driving it. No starty. I tow it back to the mechanic. He finds
ignition coil is burnt out as well as distributor. *sigh*. I tell him to
find the "root cause". He calls me back later and tells me I have 2 spark
plug wires that are burned out and that's what started the whole problem.
Now I have new wires, rebuilt dristributor and new ignition coil. Car is
driving great again. I am just wanting to get other opinions on whether or
not bad wires could have caused this problem to occur. I believe I had bad
wires (tho I did last change them only 2 years ago).
