I want to say msd because the cap is red but theres no markings on it.
The first place to start is the distributor.

Find out exactly how much initial timing is set. Do not forget to disconnect the vacuum advance when you do so. Then rev the motor and find out how much total timing you have, also with the vacuum advance disconnected. Make note of the RPM where full mechanical advance comes in.

You need to figure out where you are at before you can attempt to fix anything. Change one thing at a time.
