sounds fine, no missing at speed. power just falls off. If it were fuel related the Champions would act the same I would imagine. I have a new electric pump.

LIke has been said, realisticly changing plugs not gonna change HP unless one was fouled etc. Bigger gap can make more power, resistor plug can run a little better. But really, would have to see this on a dyno. NGK makes a wonderful plug.
If coil bad it would be missing as you got it up to power and it started running out of power.
Pinging, gotta get rid of it.

Oh I just love it when I have a "unique" problem! Who else has any thoughts?
