That looks like a electronic dizzy yes? Dang sure the PO did not replace the oil pump or drive rod or he messed with something. But I'd pull the dizzy and inspect it end to end. Also while you have it in your hand push up on the lower shaft with the cap off and see what's happening to make it run bad..orich

Okay will do. I'm pretty sure it's not electric, how would I tell..? Sorry, I'm not the best on distributors.
