Default wrx probs

My94 wrx is doing the same. Idles fine, under load, jerks and bucks etc. Checked my coils and plugs and my plugs were gapped too big (1.1mm) and one of my coil packs was incorrect for the wrx. It was a subaru svx coil. The plug it came off smelled like fuel really strong and doesnt look like its fired a spark in a long time. There was no colour on the ceramic of the plug, just a strong fuel smell so im guessing it is that coil. (the wrong one)! and wasnt firing. Im going to do my fuel filter too.
