Sounds like a misfire. Which can have many causes, spark or fuel related.

So setting the dwell to specification fixed it before, then after two weeks it came back. Now it is time to check the dwell again. If it is out of spec after two weeks, most likely the cause would be lack of grease on the distributor cam lobes.

If the well is still 49-52 degrees, I would put the old set of points on and see if it makes a difference. The points (although fairly new) could be bad. Or maybe not. You won't know until you either test or otherwise solve the problem.
