Default No Spark to Two Cylinders

I own a 1988 Chevy Celebrity Eurosport V6.
My problem is that two cylinders are not getting any spark through the spark plug wires. I can still drive, but since 2 cylinders are not working their is a lack of power of course and after a 10 minute trip or so when stopping at a stop sign the oil light will come on and the car will start to putter and either die or almost die.
So any help would be appreciated. Thanks

HAVE YOU CHECKED YOUR SPARK PLUGS CONDITION AND YOUR SPARK PLUGS CABLES. I SUPPOSED THAT YOUR ENGINE IS A 2.8 or a 3.1.

You probabally have a bad coil, there are three of them and each one provides spart for both cylinders, trace the wires back to the coil and see if the 2 dead cylinders are on the same coil, if so, change the coil.
