Coolant and rubber chunks in oil

Update
So i put in the ignitor kit, and new cap and a new coil I've got lots of spark from the coil and at the plugs but it still won't start. I also replaced the intake to firewall ground if that makes a difference but I just want to know why this thing won't start. Firing order is correct and when 1st piston is at top dead center the rotor is at number 1 plug wire so everything should work fine it should fire right up also its getting lots of gas too so that's not it. Help quick would be appreciated thanks

Have you verified spark at the plugs?
And are the plugs wet with fuel?

Alright
Yes so that would be the same as the chain jumping a tooth? I know the chain isn't broken because the distributor rotor turns with hand cranking. Could it be the carb? I thought the plugs would be wet with all the flooding just from cranking. The carb will flood out but pull a plug and its dry so what's up with that? Thanks

Alright
Better explained when I pump the throttle by hand I can see gas spraying into the carb just looking down the primarys so gas is going into the car and a lot of it I have almost all new fuel lines a new fuel pump and filter, there is definitely lots of gas going into the carb. Just from all the cranking and moving the throttle the carb will get very gassy and it will start to leak out the drivers side onto the intake. I believe carter 4 Barrels have a flood vent on that side am I correct? I would think if its getting lots of gas in the plugs would be wet but they are always dry. Maybe something not letting gas into the intake? Original avs carb. Thanks guys.

OK. Thanks for clearing that up...
Pull the oil Filler Cap off.. Have someone crank the engine over for you... Use a flashlight and look down in the hole and see if you see the rockers move?

My thought is that its flooded, pull the plugs and clean, turn the motor over untill it quits spiting out the plug holes. Put the clean plugs in and see if it will go.
It's just an idea.

Hmmm alright
Well it's worth a try the only thing is when the carb floods I can pull a plug and it will be dry and they are all clean but I'll give it a try. I also got a rebuild kit for the carb so I hope that'll help. Any other imputs appreciated Thanks.
