anybody ever hear this one? 200 1988

Hello everyone, had an engine cut out no restart situation recently wonder if anybody might have some thoughts. put a new coil in old one was leaking badly cleaned all the fuses and holders with a small wire brush checked all the connections and cleaned all that I could cleaned ground connections cleaned and regapped plugs and the car started right up.let idle in park for a bit then let idle in gear for a bit as well idle was a little lopy at first but as it warmed up it smoothed out. Then I went for a short ride it seemed ok for a while but then it started to run rough with a lot of clattering and lurching and then went no power then stop stalled out at an intersection, got it started and made it to the next intersection and it quit again and would not restart. luckily this time I was at the top of a hill and rolled it back into my driveway. Made an appt. next week to take it into the shop where my old mechanic is back after a health related hiatus and hope fully he can work his magic any responses as always are welcome and appreciated. You guys are great! Thanks DK
