OK here are some quick thoughts. What kind of distributor do you have? If by chance you have a Mallory, there is a good chance the Ignition Control Module is going bad....I should know I've had the same problem before and found out that was the case for me. Not too bad to replace it, but expect to run about $89.

If you have a Ford points style, good luck......I have no clue. Me and points system don't get along.

MSD ignition? Call customer service and they will walk you through the problem.....outside of these, it could be anything, but most likely sounds like a ICM problem. Hope this helps.

Later.
