This may be a stretch, and it's very unlikely, but the distributor weights have a centrifugal spring mechanism that could cause havoc if the springs were broken. The springs are rivetted on, so they're not easy to fix and one has cracked off of my distributor. (They're behind the points and stuff.) If my tractor isn't tuned perfectly, it exhibits symptoms similar to yours.
