When is the last time you did a tuneup and changed the cap and rotor?

Not always at all.

What did your tuneup include?

Do you know how to set the base timing?

You have to remove the brown and black timing wire from PCM under the glove box carpet area, then set the timing to zero, and then reconnect the timing wire again and reset the computer by pulling the negative battery cable for 10 minutes.
