Air,fuel, spark, timing, compression. Eliminate, compression, timing, air. Eliminate those because they shouldn"t have changed. You have fuel, crank it, pull a plug and see if it"s wet, if it is, your fuel system is delivering, if it isn"t wet, then carb. Most likely, spark, pull a plug and keep it in the wire and ground it to the block and see if it sparks. Sparks, then back to fuel. No sparks, go to the distributor and pull the cap, look inside and see if there is corrosion, corrosion, new cap...but, I"ll bet on the points being corroded, if so, fine point file, file them, set them and fire it up. So...this is simple, it"s either fuel or spark, 10 minutes to check which or both. Spark is made by points and I"ll bet you just need a new cap, rotor, condensor, and points. Or, clean up the corrosion and you"re good to go. It does turn over right?
