The fuel pump relay is a source of trouble, if in fact yours is old. They're easy to replace, or it can be popped open and resoldered inside if you want to save the old one, for free.

But with this car, this age, I'd expect it's about time to need a distributor. That can be a couple hundred dollars for a new one- the chances of finding a good used one are fairly low. All of them have problems with insulation breaking down at the hall sensor.

I put a new dist in our 88 2 years ago for similar symptoms.

Good luck!
