I started it last Sunday a week after it started acting up,now its actind as if it has a dead cylinder and when I crack the throttle it immediately dies.worried
Sounds like a clogged fuel filter to me -- or something else causing fuel starvation. Initially it started out messing up the idle, then worsened to where there's not enough fuel to let the engine rev

Check for a pinched or improperly routed fuel line in your 86. Petcock control ? Someone with an 86 can elaborate.
