Running on 3 cylinders

I went to start my car monday, it wouldnt turn over the first 3 tries then it started and backfired really loud. kept misfireing all the way home everytime i would get into it even a little, i thought it wasnt getting spark so i changed the cap and rotor put an external coil all msd stuff, new plugs wires but still nothing has changed, if anyone could help me i would appriciate it.
