Darrell, I had a persistent low speed miss under load the I finally solved by 
regapping my plugs.  I thought I would improve thermal efficiency by setting 
the gap to .035 but it turns out the coil couldn't develop enough voltage to 
jump that gap when cylinder pressures were the highest.  

As a consequence I always recommend checking the plugs when encountering a 
low speed miss.

BTW, the car runs just fine at .025 so why mess with it?
