i know but last time i took it there they could not get a read i was just gonna buy a scanner but the obd1's are hard to find for some reason. and they are pricey ... autozone uses obdII and it will get a linking error unfortunately, i need to find someone with an OBDI

oh ok awesome... it could have been misfiring because i took the spark plug wires off the ignition coils and dusty rust poured out of the wires so im either going to clean them up or just replace all coils, wires, and plugs

Replace the wires and plugs first (especially if they are the original ones!!). You can clean the terminals on the coils and they might be fine.
