Could also be the upstream O2 sensor. Unless the cat is clogged, I doubt it is causing an issue on your 87 - only the upstream o2 sensor affects engine tuning
she has new plugs.. New wires..new distributor cap.
i don't think i checked the ignition coil but will for good measure

She also needed new fuel injectors too.
they weren't "misting"...they were pushing a steady flow..like someone who hadn't peed in a couple of hours! So trying to find those....😒

That's easy. 0 280 155 746 from a Volvo.
JHC7399 here on CF provides refurbished ones for very reasonable $.

My parents' term for that was : "like a cow pissin on a flat rock".
