olds missing

What would cause a car to miss so bad it would hardly stay running when it finally does start? I know spark plugs and wires but anything else? Its on an 82 oldsmobile. I'm dumb so Ill ask could the carburator have anything to do with it? If not what else could cause such a terrible miss?

Re: olds missing

Unless you got a load of really bad gas lately (I mean in the gas tank) and you have a sudden miss, look for something like a cracked distributor cap. Pop it off and look at the inside walls and between the terminals. Look at the rotor too.
