Sooty plugs and misfiring indicates problem injectors
run a couple of quality injector cleaner through the tank and see if that improves the running

THIS IS NOT THE FIRING ORDER. Honestly just look at it, 123456? There is no way that is right. The order is right on the distributor cap I bought and works perfectly on my 1988 Chrysler New Yorker. It is 1,3,5,4,6,2 going counterclockwise on the cap.
SOURCE: 1 3 5 are misfiring changed distributor now 1 plug is misfiring
Is the cylinder not getting spark, or fuel ?
