Hi Dan,
I believe I once had this happen too.  It was the side entry dist. cap.  The 
set screws that hold the high tension wire loosened up and caused it to miss.   
BTW find a electronics screw driver, they can reach into that cap with out any 
problems and tighten them right up.  I have also seen the low tension wire 
short out causing a miss.  This is the small wire inside the dizzy that 
connects the points to the coil.  It sometimes will frey and vibrations will 
short intermittently.  Most likely it is electrical.  I also had the cap come 
loose one side this caused a miss.
Good luck
ww Ricky
