Default FIAT 128 PROBLEM

GOOD MORNING,

COULD ANY ONE HELP ME PLEASE, I HAVE A FIAT 128 AND I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE
TIMING OF THE SPARK PLUGS, THE TIMING IS NOT CONSTANT, WHEN I CONNECTED THE
HIGH TENSION WIRE TO ONE SPARK PLUG FURST THERE WERE TWO SPARK CONTINUIOUS
AND THEN THERE WAS A REST OF 4 SECONDS THEN ANOTHER SPARK.
THE SPARK IS NOT CONTINUOUS, I WAS THINKING THE PROBLEM WAS FROM THE
DISTRIBUTOR POINTS, CAPACITOR (CONDENSOR) OR THE BALLAST RESISTOR,

COULD ANYONE HELP PLEASE

You don't need to SHOUT!

Could be a fuel problem too.

Timing lights that clip onto the wires can miss picking up the spark
pulse if the fuel isn't there. What does the light do when clipped onto
the other plug wires?

What is the engine doing or not doing?
