there are a lot of possibilities.
use a multimeter and check the distributor - ignitor, coil, plug wires, etc - replace any if out of spec.
check cap and rotor.
check spark plugs - are they worn? fouled? lean? rich?
check ignition timing - should be 16 degrees btdc
check fuel delivery - try replacing fuel filter, injector cleaning.
