The coil can break down and put out a weak yellow or reddish spark. It should be blue white. The weak spark will NOT start the car, even though you see a spark when you look for one.
It the coil is going bad, you may have jostled it enough to get it working when you were pulling on the green wire.

Thanks for the input - not sure if you missed it above, but I took coil measurements: coil primary measures about .4 ohms (within spec) - coil secondary measures about 9 kohms (within spec). Unless I'm mistaken, these measurements indicate that the coil is fine.
