    These guys know what they are talking about. But I say you have dirty points. Or way out of adjustment. You say you set them with a meter—does that mean you have the timing fixture? Doesn’t sound like it. But simply gapping them at 0.020″ is “good enough” for a one-time job.

    Once again, dirty points.

    Did I mention points?

    Coils are OK according to readings you got before installing

    That plug wire with high resistance might have a problem.

    Um, points??
