One more clarification post to help with the troubleshooting. When we brought the truck back from the dead (In Lincoln, prior to the move), it ran smooth when we first fired it up with the Rochester. After a while it just ran like crud and not smooth anymore. I remember pulling the original plugs, and saw nothing noteworthy, but we put new ones in anyways. I will circle back on the wiper motors for a leak. Is there a manual somewhere I can find ID/OD of hose sizes? I have listed the plug & wires I bought below to see if those were incompatable in the first place.

Overall, its mind boggling that I could drive it around a couple times in Lincoln without issue and it got worse the more I drove it. Then, when picking it up from the mechanic in Denver, it ran smoothly all Friday night, ran smooth Saturday morning, then degraded into rough running. If all they changed was plugs, wires, coil, and it ran smoothly for a while, it made me wonder if one of those was wrong. Heck, is one wire backwards somewhere screwing it up? I will post a picture when I get home, maybe a keener eye than I will spot a really easy fix.
