My car has starting to run a little rough last week. Today is is totally down. It acts like it is running on 2 cylinders and won't idle. The points were pitted so I replaced them with the cap and condensor. The plugs were black. 2 were totally wet (3 + 4) and have been replaced. I have changed the ECU, MPS. and the coil. The fuel pressure is up around 29. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the input guys.

I am still having problems. I am getting spray at the injectors. I replaced the distributor. I may have an electricial problem. I replaced the relay board and the fuel pump quit working. After several swaps back and forth, the fuel pump started working again but I still have the same problem. I am going to look into the grounds a little more. The one at the rear of the engine seemed tight but that mignt not be enough. I will do a compression test. I will also have to recheck my engine timing now that the distributor was changed. Thanks again for your input.
