Larry;
        Sounds like the Hall effect sensor in the distributor is reaching
the end of it's life cycle. If you have a clamp on timing light , check
for spark the next time it fails. Our 85 and 86 both failed in this
manner.
        WARNING: The connector for the Hall affect gets very brittle with
age. Be very gentle when unplugging it.

Good Luck and Drive Safely
