Take it back to where you bought it for warranty. Some times new parts go bad.

check the ground connections too on the block for the coils and the pack clean them with sand paper until they are shiny a bad ground can feed the coil voltage back though the pack to find the ground and this will burn them up every time ...

CDI manufactured components are recommended. They appear to be more robust than OEM.
