Uhm?<br /><br />You need to check if you have ignition on all cylinders.<br /><br />Remove the plugs, notice the order, and watch them closely. They'll tell a lot and if one is different you'll know that the corresponding cylinder is having problems.<br /><br />BTW: A manual would lead you through a troubleshooting routine, step-by-step.<br /><br />Manual? here..
