Maybe fault is in ignition? How old are plugs, cap, rotor and wires? What is engine compression?

New plugs, cap & rotor. Haven't changed wires yet & will have to get a compression tester. Car seems to have better pick-up & did have some sort of high idle this morning around 1000 rpm - something I haven't seen. So I am guessing the Seafoam have some effect.
