Thanks for the suggestions. It does not SEEM to turn over faster with a plug out, but I do not have a tach to actually check that. When I have started it with a plug out, I have been grounding the plug (I started doing this to check whether or not I had spark). Perhaps there is enough difference in the grounding to change the resistance and spark strength for the remaining plugs. Today it did start and ran briefly, then started to sputter out (it has occasionally done this). When it sputters, I can sometimes keep it going by somewhat wildly moving the throttle; but it will only run for a relatively short while. After that, I usually cannot get it started again unless I wait a day or two to try. I did just try one of your suggestions and removed a plug wire (leaving the plug in) - it started, then ran erractically. I tried that a few more times; it started a couple more times (with plug wires removed) but later would not start at all. I've got new plug wires and coil wires. Would this indicate needing a new coil? or new plugs??
