But, on to your misfire problem. As pawoSD stated, your problem is more likely to be ignition related. Can you describe your misfire condition....is it a miss at idle that clears up when you accelerate? yes exactly
Of course the obvious things are: rotor, distributor cap, spark plugs/wires, ignition control module, etc.

^As you can see I'm not sure what is really left. I'm going to test fuel pressure next I guess.
In bold above...but yes exactly what you said. It clears up on acceleration. I was in my dads old Buick Wagon the other day and I felt a misfire on acceleration for the first time -- Mine does not have this! Idle
only.
