Got the plugs and wires changed out and it runs a lot better. Three of the plugs were so bad, I don’t see how they were firing.
One plug was broken out of the box, so while I’m waiting on its replacement, I am running 5 new plugs and one old plug (I did at least pick the best looking out of the old plugs).
There’s a coil that looks to be in rough shape as well. Looking at replacing that next. Then, come spring, we are probably replacing the A/C compressor since it won’t hold refrigerant for more than a month-ish.
You still have to let the fuel pump prime before starting it once it is warmed up, but I sneaked and started it twice without doing that. It did take longer than normal to start, but not nearly as long as it used to.
Hooray.

Nice! It’s always good when a relatively low cost fix gets things going.
