Default Ignition breakup when hot

Just recently whenever i get up to operating temp and get into boost a few times the ignition seems to be choppy at low rpms. If i'm cruising around 30-40mph and my foot is lightly on the gas it's all choppy and then once i give it more gas to accelerate it cleans up and is fine. If i'm cruising around 60-70 and hold the gas lightly to stay at a constant speed it does the choppy thing. I did notice one thing and that inside the distributor was some red dust, so somehow it got moisture in there. I don't know if when it gets hot the ignition starts breaking up cuz the dist. is taking a crap? Anyone have any ideas/suggestions on what is wrong?

bump because im having the same problem, but mine only happens sometimes. Check your sparkplugs, You could have the wrong gapping. What kind of plugs are u running?

i doubt its your ignition breaking up if it isn't breaking up in high rpms under heavy load.
