If the distributor cap is arcing then spark would show but maybe at the wrong plug at the wrong time.
I would try new Distributor cap and rotor as the first thing.
When you do diagnose please post the cure to add to my knowledge base as I have the same motor
This would also be my recommendation. It's easy, cheap and there is a strong possibility the cause of your problem. If not, you've eliminated a possible contribution to the problem and you can focus on timing, stuck float level, failed fuel pump, clogged fuel filter, and so on. Good luck.
