Mis-fire (was: have I missed something?)

["Mark Blitman" <markblitman@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

dick i have put #5 in clearwater and #7 in tampa but still getting some
mis-fire..maybe i should just learn to live with it cause the mpg seems to
be better and once it shrugs off the stumble it really moves...think it
could be an idle mixture problem? any other plug combo's that may cause it?
