One of the things that stand out to me right away is you didn't say you replaced the cap and rotor. This would be a good one to look at. If I were you I would things in this sort of order. "strobe thinger" = Timing light. Are you getting any check engine lights? Outside of the idle how does the car run now. Is there any performance sag's at particular RPM ranges?
1) Find where the oil leak is coming from. If need be, clean the engine so you can see where it is driping from.
2) Get the timing set properly. I would set it back to the factory default to start.
3) Get and use some engine clean. Read the direction carefully. This will make you do another oil change. As well, get either the dealer or a K&N oil filter. I'm sure other can recommend other good brands as well.
4) Add some injector cleaner when you change your oil ( Redline makes some good stuff).
*Replacement summary.
5) Cap and rotor, Fuel filter, air filter, O2 sensor are all big ones.
6) Clean the throttle body as mentioned before and the MAF as well.
Get back to us on the questions that were asked. When I did my wife's 96, it was the cap/rotor and the 02 sensor. Now she's having problem with the EGR, =(
