Default RE: wtf happen

you have a misfire....could be related to a secondary ignition component such as a cap, rotor , wires or plug.....you need to narrow down the misfire to a cylinder and the average harry home owner can do it by grabbing a set of insulate pliers and while running pull wire one by one until you find one where no load change/ drop in idle is noticed and there you'll have the bad cyl...at that point inspect the wire and pull plug....you can switch the component to a known good cylinder and if the misfire now goes to switched cyl..= that'll be prob component..if however when components are swapped around the misfire stays on known bad cyl...=perform compression test and verify internal integrity of motor
