Sounds like a short in the electrical system. Possibly near the coil.

More like a bad ground causing feedback. Check the ground wires from body to battery negative and body to engine.Some times the connecters get rust under them and they don't make a good connection. Really plays hell with vehicles with so many plastic parts.Put an internal star washer between the connecters and the body to make a good electrical connection.
