sounds very much like early stages of coil pack starting to brake up under load but not on light accelaration or on idle right?

Sounds like the same problem we had we changed the plugs leads and coil pack runs like a dream now :) Oh and before all that my hubby changed the cam cover gaskets because there was oil in the plugs.
