Hi Erich like you I think sooty plugs to rich a mixture.The loose plug lead I think may well be the cause of the misfire. Try letting it idle when only 3 plus leads are connected and see what is sounds like. Also try cleaning the contact breakers (points) and reset the gap.
I am am sure you are familiar with British words but for otherefore the American readers petrol -gasoline. paffafin - kerosine.
