It may need a carb overhaul if you haveone. If it's TBI, then change your fuel filter and see if your fuel pressure is 9-11 lbs. If it's lower than that then you'll need a fuel pump. It also could be the the bottom of the dist cap where the coil rides is worn or falling out, so check that. Also if your plug wires haven't been changed in a while it's agood idea to do that. The coil wire tends to wear fast due to the output of the coil.
