Sounds like the ignition fails under pressure. Pull a plug, start it and look at it in the dark. You might be surprised at how many blue sparks you can see. A system in good condition will only show the spark at the removed plug. You may see sparks jumping from wire to wire where they touch, you may notice sparks around/across the distributor cap, also where the coil wire touches any ignition leads and at the coil itself.
