stopped, started, no start 700 1987

Bought another new distributor (117 plus 2nd day air from MA.). Lo and behold it fired right up, ran a little crappy, so I did a little exploratory, #1 plug was black and sooty, replaced it, better but still that regular irregular miss, runs pretty well for the obvious misfire.
Checked the plug wires and other obvious misc related wires, to no avail. But did find that the throttle valve is not fully functional, and I will probably need an IAC in the near future.
So some time next week I will have a new distributor for sale,( will be getting a return new for the dysfunctional one) look for it in a Brickboard ad near you
TTYL
and thanks for all the help
