Easyest way to try is to swap the dist with a points one...

They could get fouled again if rich. Maybe just check/change the easy(?) 2 until you find the prob. Is gas good? I just changed spark plug wires but gas bad in Chrysler. Grrrr.

make it 12v..... get a 12v gen, coil, and bulbs. do it nicely and no one will notice.

Owner wants to keep teh car 100% original, apart from the engine and transmission. Original eng and tranny are stored away and waiting for rebuild. Car needs to remain stock, or any mods we make need to be super easily undone. Granted, a 12V conversion is a breeze as should be the reverse.
