Peter,
This is a well known problem with the older 4 way plug versions. Before
you shell out for a new ignition unit, take a good look at the flying
leads from the "black box" to the connector.
The prolonged vibration tends to work harden the copper leads and they
eventually fracture within their plastic sheathing (hidden from view),
making intermittent contact.
I won't pretend that its easy to spot, but it's a lot cheaper than a new
unit!
