get someone to put it on their oscilloscope
u can't test the coil, etc. statically AND
reliably ...
i'd go to the dealer if there's no one else to trust

: I have replaced the fuel filter, rotory button, dist. cap, plugs, wires, alternator in the past year, battery. I gutted the catalytic converter. I have ran a can of sea foam through it. Changed the air filter. My brother-in-law is a mechanic (side work mostly) and we are trying to work through this, but I am at a loss. Anyone know if the fuel pump could be the culpret? If so, where is it located?
: It will occasionally stall out.
