I've seen this when 1) the pin was loose in the block and driving it in
deeper with the inverted coil got the guy out of the house, and 2) when the
counter bearing bar was so tall relative to the coil bottom that the
strings on pins closest to the bar were climbing the coil and breaking, and
3) from someone fresh out of the box who wasn't real sure how he got there
in the first place.
