Eric;
Just to give a bit more detail on Randall's bit where he quite correctly
suggests figuring out which cylinder is missing: You can do this by removing
one spark plug wire, one at a time, and listen to see if there is a
difference. On three out of four, it should run even worse. On one of them,
there
will be no difference if the problem is related to electrics going to one
particular cylinder. Just be careful not to 'zap' yourself when removing
each wire.
If there's a difference on each of all four when you remove each spark
plug wire, either there is an electrical problem with a component or
connection that affects all four cylinders (such as coil, points, condensor,
etc.)
or it's a fuel problem.
Let us know how you get on.
Tim
