Had a problem with my 3.2 missing on one cylinder. Afer checking all leads etc, found that it was No5 cylinder spark plug fouled up ( to many short drives) changed plugs and fine, yet now its missing again. Why would same plug keep fouling. Also what is the life span of a set of ignition leads?? Could a faulty lead not be helping??

Faulty lead = no spark = fouled plug.

Hummm thing is all the leads have tested ok. Looks like it will have to be new leads just to make sure. Oooch

Changed every thing. Was running fine. Leads test ok but think it will have to be a new set see how it is then. Other than that im thinking it is worn valve guide seal piss ing oil. Hope not.
