Is the throttle opening all the way? Have someone press the gas and then see if you can open it any farther.

check for codes. make sure all the wire connections to the dizzy are good, and check to see if the internals of the dizzy are tight. if you butt connected the harness to the distributor, you should probably rewire with solder this time

it will run in limp mode if it has a bad crank sensor. Actualy suprised it will stay running. But when it runs in limp mode it will not rev past about 3000 rpm. Good luck.
