Deathrider hit the nail on the head, you want to be looking at replacing the dizzy, rotor arm, plugs, leads atleast.

Chances are, if your getting fuel to the rail, it'll be what's mentioned above and you may aswell change 'em all in one go, they aren't overly expensive and it's always good for peace of mind.

How does the cars service history look?
