It could be a few things.
(1)Does it have (spark)?if not it could be a ignition coil,ignition module in the dist.,pickup coil in the dist.
Check that first, also I need more info how many miles on the engine?what is the general condition under the hood? has anybody messed with the wiring,vacuum hoses etc? or is it mostly original?
