Does it cut out when you goose the throttle, but does ok when you gradually push on the gas? If so, it may be something wrong with the accelerator pump diaphram in the carb. If somebody de-commissioned the the original dist, and you still have the original carb with a bunch of wires coming out of it, you might want to change to an older style carb to match the dist you have. Or an aftermarket intake manifold and carb.
