Problem need help asp

ok so today some guy came to look at my car and all was good till it was time for a test drive at first the car ran good and normal but then he stall out and when he went to start the engine he flooded it. now i how never had a pproblem clearing a flooded engin i just turn off my fuel pump switch till it start, but for some reason it would not start again. so i decided to change the plugs with an old set i had and it started up but is now sluggish and doesnt run right or hold idle. at first i thought that those plug were bad so i replaced them yet a again with another set and it is still doin the same **** now. to me it sound like its not firing right but im not sure. maybe its my old wires but i need help if you have any suggestion let me know im tryin to sell the car as fast as possible.

Make sure you have the plug wires connected correctly. Like L1 to leading rotor 1, T1 to trailing rotor 2, and so on. The coils are marked.

Oops, I just noticed a glaring error in my last post. It should be, T1 to trailing rotor 1 (not 2). Sorry.
