That thread

Coil, MAF, or crank sensor, that's the only thing left.

Thanks bud. Is there any easy way of testing a coil if it's still working?

Ground a test light. Pull each plug wire with the car running and poke the test light into the plug boot. Careful, this will shock the SHIT out of you if your finger is ever closer to the lead than the test light is. It should be a nice, fat, inch-log angry ass spark. If it's weak on any or all of them, your coil is probably going bad. Since you have a points system, I'm going to guess you have a single coil system too, so it'll probably be weak on all of them.

The other way is to test the resistance of the coil primary and secondary. It's basically just a bigass transformer. Every coil is different, but if you can find a spec for what your primary and secondary resistances should be, then you can bench test this. I'd bet some money that your secondary is lower than it should be though.

This might be because the car ran with bad plugs and leads for a while, and this resulted in the coil finding a path of less resistance within itself.

Run a compression test too, just to make sure it isn't that. If you're wondering why, read my monologue above.

Also to be clear, obviously don't pull every plug boot at once. Test one at a time.

Thanks buddy

i would say, hate the germans and italians but love the americans, so why our friends don'nt send the f-150 to brazil ;-;?

Gonna be spray painting one of my cars soon and I'm trying to do the best rattle can job possible. Pretty confident I can. Just waiting for warmer weather to arrive. Can I get some br/o/s to post their rattle can jobs maybe?
Pic unrelated, just my truck but it seems to always be popular on here.

Do you have much money? I'd rent a trailer to transport you engine and a second hand engine crane/A frame with a chain block. Get a m8 to come with you because engine swaps are a cunt on your own and do the job is a quiet parking lot in the middle of nowhere. Probably a shit idea when you don't even know if the engine will run desu.

Why not just buy a poverty spray gun and a $100 compressor?

Call me autistic but I actually have a good HVLP setup, I just feel like rattle canning.
