Bill:
I am wondering how long it has been since you did a major tune up on the
1500? My guess is you could not go wrong in ordering a new dizzy cap and
rotor, points and condenser, new wires, and new plugs. Then adjust your
valves, set your timing, and install the above. Good time to adjust the
carbs as well. Even if another problem is at hand, such as a stretched
timing chain or failing coil, these things need renewal at intervals, so you
can't go wrong by replacing them and eliminating these items as potential
problems.
And if it solves your problem you have gotten off relatively cheaply (We
tight).
