engine keeps missing, need help.
Hey everyone, I just bought an 87 GTA on saturday. I drove it from south jersey to central jersey this morning and it was running a little rough. Once I got home I realized that it is missing like a bastard! I think it might be the plugs, because I went to take one out and check it, the entire porcelain part broke off rather easily. I bought all new plugs and will put them in tomorrow. Any other thoughts on what it might be? The car drove and ran just fine for the first few days I had it, it just started doing this today. Any help would be great, considering I am very new to this TPI stuff. Thanks in adavnce!

I changed the plugs yesterday and that fixed it all right. Two of the plugs were really messed up. Now it idles perfectly and get better gass mileage too. Thanks guys!
