Dennis,

 

When you check the coils with the coil disable function on runup, is there enough of a change that you would expect to notice one plug intermittently not firing in cruise?

Mark - You are not alone with your occasional intermittent misfire.  I also have the miss as you described - I only notice it in cruise.  It happens once every 15 to 30 minutes!  I wonder if it is one plug not firing instead of a complete miss of the cylinder.   I'm using the Renesis RX-8 coils and RX-8 Iridium plugs with Tracy's EC-2.  Most of the time I use mogas.
