My 84 is misfiring all of the sudden

there is a thumping noise coming from my exhaust and a significant loss of power. the engine isnt making any irregular noises. I was driving all day today and the car was fine, then I took it home for about an hour and when i was driving it started doing this, any reason why or what could be causing the misfire, I just replaced spark plugs, cap and rotor about 3,000 miles ago but not spark plug wires.
