As likely carburation.
We need more information to make a diagnosis from a distance.
Does it have a good spark? If you shut it down then it may have just enough spark energy at running revs and not enough at cranking speed. Is this a distributor or mag (presumably a dist, but both systems use a coil)?
Is the spark yellowish or blue? If yellowish, maybe condensor has seen better days.
Is the contact gap correct, points good and timed correctly?
Does it flood the carb or have a small leak on the inlet manifold? Valve clearances OK?
All things, along with others, which might cause this small problem. Could just as likely be the coil.
Regards, RAB
