if the car was running fine before whatever issue that caused you to change the coil, then i would say before you go off messing with timing and all that, check, double-check and triple-check the wire placement. it could be just that simple.

the timing of the spark igniting the fuel before the air/fuel is fully compressed at its peak. on fbs itd be a matter of turning the distributor.
