your problem is somewhere in the low voltage part of the ignition. Make sure
all the connections in the low tension circuit (points, and condenser) are
tight. Sometimes the connectors get loose after all these years and need to be
replaced, or in my case. a poorly executed splice.
If the blade connector slides off easily, make it tight , or replace it.
