This does not sound like fuel starvation to me, sounds like an ignition problem. Replacing the fuel filter is not a bad idea, and if it fixes the problem, fine. But a restricted fuel filter doesn't usually come and go, and often it develops as a problem first under maximum fuel flow, ie high speed/ high acceleration. If I read correctly the problem is present at idle when fuel demand is low and a restricted filter will matter less. If I wanted to throw a part at the problem without diagnosis, I would replace the ignition coil first, then the plug wires, then the cap and rotor, then the points and condenser. Or do the whole megillah and you won't know which was the culprit, but you will likely fix the problem
