Tim, dang! I hope your recovery is 100% too. Having something like that happen has to reset your priorities.

I can't recall my CDI box (several of them over the years) ever getting hot enough to even notice it was hot. Since you have the classic Retrofit CDI box, you should first contact the vendor (I forget his name, but he participates on this Forum) and tell him about the hot box. He's very responsive.

5 months back, I also suggested that you swap the coil and see if that makes a difference. If you have not one that yet, do so. It only takes a few minutes.

I think your problem remains ignition related, not CIS related.
