If you stop , shut it off to cool down does it run ok again??? Sounds like the CMPS in the distributor failing. If you can cool the distibutor off somehow when it produces the problem and it runs ok you will need to replaces distributor, is so look on ebay for a richporter distributor, good product with lifetime warranty. I believe the store is THE IMPORTEXPORT STORE. (Check with a local salvage yard for a used distributor, should e able to get one cheap, to test with)
