Sounds as though you had an intermittent ignition problem. One way to find out whether you solved the problem is to drive around. On the other hand, the ignition components that you took off the car

The trick is to disconnect or short the coil so you don't get a spark, and then to spin the engine on the starter till you get oil pressure. Hope you did not damage the engine. Dirk

The key issue here is what the colour of the smoke is. If it's black you're running rich; if it's blue you're burning oil which, under the conditions you describe, means the rings are shot or, worse,
