Default 1994 wb festiva distributer

gday thanks to the mods for accepting my login.......
i have a few problems and also a few questions.......ill start with my problems
in my festiva trio 1.3 it idles great and starts up first time......but if i quickly rev the engine it hesitates and carries on until i back off the accelerator.....and thats just when im sittin on the driveway in nuetral.....changed the fuel pump to a bramd new one......plugs are near new.....if i take a lead of a spark plug sequentially i here a dropout of the engine.....its just accelerating......took the plugs out and each plug is very black but dry.......so if anyone could help out there id be wrapped....
and my questions are.......on a 4 door festiva do the front doors fit a trio
and is the distributer in a 1.5 litre bolt straight into a 1.3 litre and drive away? thanks for reading mull

Sounds similar to the problem i had in our WB. Options were $400 for a new dizzy or second hand for $50. Took the second option & had no troubles after.
2 & 4 door front doors are not interchangeable.
As for the dizzy's not sure whether they are interchangeable.
