1989 240 starting problem 200

I have an occasional starting problem with my 1989 245 GL. When I turn the key the engine cranks and fires. It stumbles a bit and then cuts out. When it does this, it will then not start for 30 to 60 minutes. Cranks fine, but will not fire. Other times it starts with no trouble at all.

It has a new cap, rotor, plugs, and plug wires. The timing is on spec.

Any and all suggestions are appreciated.
