I had the sensor coil in the distributor on my 72 318 go bad. And the
first replacement was bad also. Each time I hooked an ohmeter to the
coil and flexed the wires and each time the meter reading changes as I
flexed the wires. Second replacement fixed it.

I've had the go intermittent with temperature. Cold works, distributor gets
hot and it opens.

I think it might be the cam position sensor connector. All you have to do is
breath on it and it works, sometimes for a week or so before it craps out
again.So I've replaced the cam and crank sensors and cut out both the
connectors. The dealer says they are not available anyway.
