If changing the coil "fixed it" but it then got worse, it likely had
nothing to do with the coil. And the old coil was providing spark - a
coil cannot tell which cylinder is firing, so should usually be the same
on all holes.
It is possible that a "better coil" would hide and/or exacerbate some
other deficiency, like low voltage to the coil, or faults in the HT side.
Check the internal earth lead from the points plate to the distributor
body - they break with age, and cause just this sort of behavior. The
break will be (usually) at one end, but if not the super fine braid
wire will pull out of the braided silk insulation. It is not rare that
these have been replaced by inappropriate stiff wire, which fails quickly.
If that is not it, call back with an updated sequential and complete
listing of exactly what has been done/changed and results.
