Maybe battery (or battery cables loose).maybe the altinator isn't charging the battery.Is the red light on in the dash when the engine is running?
The engine has an earth cable going from the block to the body. After 30yrs it may have corroded (it's vital but often overlooked).

when you get the motor running is it smooth or lumpy?
