Are you on points or an electonic ignition?

If on electonic, basics are;

Ensure the dizzy cap is clean and dry and leads are same and not chaffing. Liberal lube of advance weights under the stator plate of the dizzy.

Check HT coil LT wires and connections are clean and tight.

Also the rotor arm is clean and dry (and the Dizzy posts are clean of any build up).
