Odd. Maybe the coil socket is too close to the engine. I've sealed mine up with an electrical sealer that looks like clear silicone that doesn't set up. Mine was doing the same thing until I sealed it. Now that I'm thinking about it more, that may be an indication that the plug leads are going bad (too much resistance).

yep, too much resistance.replace the wire set and make sure you have the correct spark plugs at the proper gap.but verify that the coil tower is not cracked first.
