Angry 1983 Celica GTS - Having Ignition problems

Hello EVERYONE,

I DROVE MY CELICA HOME FROM WORK. It was low on gas about a quater of a tank left.

I filled her up and parked the car at home. Next afternoon the car poped off then died immediately. Now it will turn over but will not fire. Now every now and then it will fire after I have left it alone for a little bit then, it won't fire anymore.

For the past few days it has had problems staying running after start-up but after it is warmed up it doesn't have any problems anymore.

Let me know what you guys think I should look into! So far nothing has worked.

Thanks for your time,

MK

Make sure there are no loose wires or cracks at the distributor. Check the intake manifold and look cracked/leaking hoses. If you find nothing get back to me.
