Same here with me, except yesterday went for a ride and something was different ! At idle each cylinder fired hard, not a miss just harder. After about 60 miles it wouldn't stay running at idle, pulling some hills was difficult. So I stopped and checked the points gap, it had closed up. Reset to .022 and all is fine now, new points a coupe hundred miles ago and the points follower had worn down. Happy Easter be save !
