Welcome to the site. A little more information is needed.
Are you using a mechanical fan or electric fans?
What size and type of carb is on it?
What other modifications are done?
What type of carb advance is running? Ported or full vacuum?
What is the thermostat running temperature?

A 1977 model is very simple technology. What you are describing sounds more like an ignition problem to me, either brought on by a lack of electrical power/ground or the actual engine timing.
To me runs fine then runs poor then back says fuel. Runs than stops then runs says look at wiring. I have no idea on the timing as described but I don't suspect it.
Dirty fuel or fuel pump are possible and are kind of leading my thinking.
