Did oil and plugs this weekend. I did them when I first bought it and it was over time to do them again. Plugs are tedious on this car, so I'm irritated that it was misfiring like crazy on a couple of cyls when I started back up. I let it run for a while and logged the misfires (lots of them). I shut the car down and decided to deal with it later. I was pissed because I didn't want to have to start moving plugs around to determine if it was the coils or bad "new" plugs. Upon restarting the next day... no misfires.
Misfires are usually easy to duplicate. High gear, high load, low-ish rpm/speed. Its very easy to crack the porcelain, by chance were any of the plugs dropped before installation? Did you use hand tools or power tools? If power tools, did you run them in nice and slow?
