if the misfire develops after the car has warmed up, it could be the coil. when cold it could run fine, as the coil heats up, it expands. if there is a failure in the windings as it expands the wires separate and the coil breaks down.

When you say, breaks down........ Just how would that sound/feel. The spark at idle is blue and strong, jumps 3/4 of an inch. Bob |
