Ignitor is usually a no-start/no spark situation, not a limp home one.

Cap and rotor, plug wire arcing out, thermostat ground, jumped a tooth on the timing belt? If you have fuel pressure you're halfway there.

Lean?  You said afr went rich.  I'm thinking something under the cap if rich, clogged injector(s) or something if lean?  Bright white plug though.  Idk

just remember, if you have a misfire your wideband will read lean. Even though it could be puking black smoke out the tail pipe. But thats why you check plugs and white....... Im thinking lean.
