Just a thought: I had a problem with my engine just not running right. After checking plug wires, coil wire, timing, carb, possible vacuum leaks, etc., it turned out to be a spark plug with an almost invisible crack in the porcelain. Guess the current was jumping through this "hole" in the insulation.
