Misfire issue

I just got new spark plugs, wires, and a distributor cap, but the car has been running like crap for the last few days. Its sputtering and it revs super slow. Is there any way that this could be a problem with the distributor body?

check your coils, check if you're getting enough fuel.

I was getting good fuel flow, but I'm going to have to wait until the end of the week to check the coils. Car's in portland, and I'm a hundred miles south in Eugene.

Was the car fine before you installed the new parts? If so, check the routing of the plug wires to make sure you didn't have an idiot moment, and check the plugs on the ignitors to make sure you didn't bump them...
