AnswerThe entire ignition system consists of the plugs coil and wires, and the electronics contained within the distributor.
All the activating of the coil takes place in the distributor.
The quality of connections is more often a problem than the electronics inside, but they are individually replaceable.
I strongly suspect the multi plug going into the distributor of having a marginal connection. That is what has happened to me a time or two, and cleaning and making certain the connectors were good usually solved it for a couple of years. When I first got it, the electronics in the distributor were intermittently bad, which is part of the reason I got it cheap, although I wasn't aware of that right away.
