    if new wires doesnt fix it check coil resistance, if that doesnt fix it check your injectors

    i chased something like this for a while. Might not be your issue but mine happened after a fresh tune up and turned out to be barely visible cracks in the porcelain on my new #4 plug. I think it was the result of not using a cushioned plug socket.
