It is somewhat frustrating. I have replaced the spark plugs and ran Berrymans in the tank and through the Intake manifold. Any other ideas? Possibly the Coil Pack?

It seems to have started when I smeared some conductging goop on the boots of the wires. I have testged the Coil Primary som far but need to test the secondary's also. I had a problem with my old coil and bought a used one on ebay. I would feel better with a new one. The new wires only have maybe 4,000 miles on them.

Dielectric grese is an insulator and is used to fill open voids so water and air can't find room to get in to cause corrosion. Conducting goop would kill the spark and cause misfires.
