UPDATE
last week I started driving my Sprite
Ran great for about 20 minutes, then started sputtering and coughing
Limped home and started investigating
#3 misfires - a lot.  Connected timing light and spark is erratic to # 3
Connected timing light to others and all apper OK
Reset plug gap, cleaned points, replaced condensor
I have attempted to adjust carbs and have synced flow and set slightly lean

Engine idles well and revs well
When I go for a test drive it runs great for about 1 mile, then begins to cough
and sputter
I limp home and check plugs, etc
Restart and it runs great  - for about 1 mile, then cougn, sputter ,

repeat over and over again
What am I doing wrong
What am I missing
