Now I would say we can assume that the distributor and it’s parts are ok.

Not sure yet if the plug wires are ok but hooking up a timing light to each plug just to test for flashes can prove them good.

If you do a compression test and all 8 are within even just 20% of one another then a dead cylinder issue could be ruled out.

This leaves the Carb and a blocked circuit from dirt & crap to be checked out .
