Wow! The light just went on!
I had a similar problem about 10 years ago, the distributor shaft bearings
wore and the points-cam wobbled around, thereby the points didn't always
open-close at the right interval. I forced the car home, keeping the revs
up, push starting a couple of times. When I finally figured it out, I put in
a stable distributor, all was fine. I since installed an allison (crane)
breakerless ignition in the Delco distributor (which I like for it's vacuum
advance).
good luck!
