Start with replacing the cheap bits that can cause this sort of problem. Condenser, fuel filter, points and electrical connections and move onto the other suggestions until all is well.

Normally the last thing you try that fixes it :-)

I would first check the spark plugs, to see how the engine runs. Too rich fuel/air mixture?
