Kind of sounds like a coil problem to me.  Have you checked the resistance across the primary on the coil?  Maybe check for continuity from the secondary to the case of the coil - there should not be any there.  

 

Good luck.

If you have points the wire from the coil to the points should have power when the points are open and 0 volts when the points are closed.

If this is not happening clean the point contacts. They are not making an electrical connection when closed.

@gwest_ca probably has it  -- points can get a ...glaze? on them or just simply get dirty. Run some fine grit paper through them.....
