I'm guessing the rotor is no longer making contact with the points. I don't know what condition your plugs & wires are in but maybe think about replacing them, the cap & rotor. Also make sure you have the proper firing order. Check your battery terminals are clean and have good connection, check/charge your battery.
I just replaced the plugs and wires about a month ago. Everything with the battery is good, etc. It will literally crank forever...the lights, radio etc. work. The only thing that is weird is the battery gauge. I think thats from rain though, I left my windows down over night and when I went to get in the next day, I turned the key and witht the engine off, the RPM gauge went to about 4k and I started it and It went higher then slowly dropped back to normal. so thats fine now but the batt gauge is competly down. Ill get some batteries for the camera and put a pic up here of some stuff

I can smell gas and I can hear the fuel pump when I turn the key... Im thinking what LO was thinking....the cap and rotor...
I thought at first the rian may have shorted something but i drove it for a while after it rained so...besides the gauges i dont think the rain hurt anything
