I wonder if the spark plug itself has worked somewhat loose and when it fires it moves a bit because of that. I had a similar situation on another car and that was what it turned out to be. Also, some of the combustion gasses were escaping through the space caused by the plug being loose. It made a noise exactly like you described. That's my .02 worth....hope it helps. Let us know what you find.
