^Text book failure of the monochrome video chain. Somewhere between the place chroma splits from the monochrome in the signal chain and the element of the CRT driven by the monochrome signal you are intermittently loosing the video signal.

You need a schematic, and either an oscilloscope, or a purpose made TV test pattern generator with a variable level video output to trouble shoot that.
