Take off the cap, and inspect the rotor and points. If they are burnt, replace both. This will cause the exact symptom.
Also, check the vacuum hoses, be sure they are connected, and not loosing vacuum.
Also check the carburetor is bolted down tight, not loosing vacuum.
Check those things first.
Then check fuel filter, and fuel pump.
Burnt points, or loss of vacuum will cause that problem.
May the force be with you.
