car unloads under pressure

hey everyone, thanks for checking this forum out. My '86 305 TPI is bogging down when you step on the gas. It may be old plugs but the lady I bought it from says it had a complete tune-up last fall. ?

Any help will help.

Had the same problem - start by checking the ignition module - fuel filter - or the coil.

doesnt mean that they changed the plugs, or did anything.
pull a plug, look at it, check the center electrode, is it rounded over?
are the correct plug for your application?
check the inital timing (bypass disconnected) 4-6° BTDC?
fuel pressure, timing, ill TPS can cause hesitation, bogs and lack
of performance.
