1993 245 Running really bad

I'll take a look Greg,

I tired to start it today. It seems my coil wire was not pressed into the coil fully.

Started and ran fine. I think the issue regarding the engine bogging down and running in reverse for lack of a better way to put it is an issue with the Starter.

I let it run a bit then tried to start it again. The starter turned over fast but did not engage.

I'm thinking the starter is causing the engine to fire incorrectly?

I assume clean or green plugs would indicate a blown head gasket?

thanks,
HACK
