Plugs, plug wires, cap and rotor. Cheap swaps and see if that helps, if not, go from there.

I had the same problem about a month ago when it was real cold, it randomly misfired (both times on cyl #1) on a couple of cold starts. I had just replaced the wires shortly before, swapped my plugs, got a new cap and rotor (the pair can be found for under $20 here on HT in the sponsors section).

Well i just thought i would give you a update i replaced the cap, rotor,plugs and wires. The plugs looked like they could of used a change and the ******* wires where like 12yrs old what the hell you own a motor and never change the plugs? I hope the rest of the motor was not abused

Thanks
