[T3] blazing hot coil


another simple question....

the other day when i was trouble shooting this distributor problem, i had 
left the key on and walked away with a book in my hand scratching my head. 
i came back to have another go and i got no response whatsoever from the 
car, not even a sputter, so i went around back to see if i had left the 
cap off, and i smelled something hot...i found it, and i almost burned my 
arm off. just kidding.
the coil was blazing hot, i mean really hot, so i turned the key off and 
let it cool before proceeding.

why would the coil get blazing hot?
