Re: misfire (father)
a pop pop?, can you feel a drain in power, like it is running on less than 4 cylinders?
I would go with replacing other ignition components, plugs, wires, maybe even the ignitor if that has gone bad

i don't know what he means by that either, but i would think if they are in the wrong order it wouldn't run fine in the lower rpms either. check your wires and plugs though

its not the wires or plugs, they are in the correct order and plugs are fine
