Joe you are absolutely right a Pickup coil will cause such problems but
usually the wires will tend to break because of constant moving, as such the
theory of disconnecting vaccum advance for diagnosis

I would guess you have a problem with the Hei.......mainly the module.
Being a hot day and all......they don't like the heat. Do you have a
spare module you could try? Be sure to put some Di-electric grease
under the bottom of the module before you bolt it down. I've also had
problems in the past with bad pick-up coils in the Hei that would run
fine but when the vacuum advance rotated the plate the pick-up module
would give a wrong reading and the car would stumble or die. Try
unplugging the vacuum line to the vacuum advance and see if the stumble
goes away.
