142s running poorly at work! 140-160

HIF6 or whatever the one's are with the fuel bowl on the bottom. Got the car home by the way, running perfectly after removing/cleaning points, don't really know if that's what did it,I guess so but they seemed fine. Perhaps unrelated, the starter began to turn slow during cranking today also. Stopped and had the battery checked, they said it was bad so I bought a new one. Same problem though. Cleaned the grounds,cables etc no help. Hit the starter with a rubber mallet and wah-lah, fixed! So right now and one unnecessary battery later, car starts and runs perfectly as it always has,hope the starter holds out, and thanks for everyone's advice.
