The posts all contain good info but some are closer to identifying your probelm than others. Remove the fuel line going into the carb or remove the plug from the bottom of the carb if there is one.

If your problem was a head gasket or points the problem would persist at all times. You would see evidence of dirty fouled plugs and the engine would miss.
