Bad Wire No Fire
It sounds like one end of the primary has an intermittent connection.
With the engine off, use an ohmmeter with alligator clips to check the continuity of each low voltage wire.
Connect the alligator clips just past where the wires are crimped in the connectors.
The alligator clips will hold the ohmmeter leads in place to allow you to wiggle the wires until you find the faulty one.

If People Drove Any Slower They’d Be Going Backwards
When you see fog or “running” lights on in good weather beware. Low performance driver ahead.
How bout those nitwits too scared to drive without headlights in the daytime
and the nitwits that need headlights for a little rain
