Its "possible" a coil or condesnor (like some other electrical components) can work and test fine when cool but start causing problems ONCE WARMED UP. If points are badly burned or pitted thay can be problematic also!!!
A simple low voltage continuity/charging/kickback test on a condensor or a coil can sure show if its BAD but just because it passes that DOES NOT PROVE ITS GOOD because HV insulation breakdown and other problems may ONLY show up once its hot!!!!!!
Right when it fails you need to pull a plug or coil wire and see if its still throwing a good blue spark orrrrrrrrr if its starved for gas????
If the gas is fine (I suspect) but no spark and you alreay have a new coil Id try a new condensor as they are so cheap and easy to change. Also insure the points arent burned or pitted or carboned up AS THAT CAN CAUSED A PROBLEM BIG TIME
