Not being able to find my noncontact thermometer, I can only guess.
After the coil has been running, and with the power *off*, I noticed
heat emanating from it. So I touched the coil body and found it was
nearly hot enough to make continued contact undesirable.

My suspicion is that they contactor has a short in the coil perhaps.
If it is too hot to maintain continued contact, then the rule of thumb
(sorry, bad pun...) is that it is too hot.
