Default new problem

hello all
i took the car for a drive around the block put about 5 miles on it ran like a dream then it started to back fire real loud and ran bad i looked at the points and found that the dist block was loose i replaced that also when i got back to house it would not start i put the old block back on it started right up but still running bad it idels fine only when giving it gas it hesates and back fires i reset the timing also what i did was go back to stock dist set up i have a new condenser new coil new points new lower plate. ran some seafoam in the gas could that have broke something loose and cloged up a jet i am no good at carbs also i oiled the dist could i have put to much oil in the dist to make it run bad oil is dripping back out the oil cap on the dist
