Thank you all for the quick reply!

I did replace the plugs, but I can't recall if i added any oil there. Just to be sure I don't miss anything here is a quick list for myself mostly of what all I'll try:

Run an extra ground strap to the engine/transmission
Confirm 6 volts on the pos ground
Pour a quart of oil down the distributor opening
Marvel Mystery oil in the cylinders and add to the oil

If none of that helps i'll start with Growley bear's list of mechanical checks (as opposed to lubrication issues).

Again, thank you all for the help!
