Happened to me once. The wire was evidently damaged during the crimp 
(have since got a proper crimper to replace the multiple whatever 
crimper tool). The constant engine vibrations on the wire cause the wire 
to break inside the insulation.  looked perfect but the ignition 
occasionally missed then as it got worse it missed enough to cut out the 
engine then started right up & acted fine again at an idle. I replaced a 
major part of the ignition before I accidentally bent the wire while the 
engine was running.  From the outside the wire & crimp looked perfect.   
Since then shaking that wire is done early on when troubleshooting a miss.
