I am using the Iridium plugs now. 

I will check the crank angle sensor, Ernest, but seems to me it is mounted on a casting on the Renesis.  I could be wrong.  I will have to look.

Bill, 

 

I cured an intermittent mis-fire on my 20B by switching to the Iridium plugs, same as those used in the Renesis engines.

I don’t think it is fuel filter related. The fuel pressure is holding steady during this time. I think it is some kind of misfire, but have no clue as to what could be causing it or how to go about diagnosing it. It is both random and intermittent and happens at various rpms. Nothing seems consistant about it happening.

What should I check?

How is your crank-angle sensor mounted? Could it be loose? Could the wire be frayed?
