Did you put the timing light on all 4 plug leads (individually) to make sure they all had consistant spark without interruption?

Also did you try pulling one plug wire at a time while the engine is running to see if there are any non-productive cylinders? If you find two dead cylinders then you want to go have a look at the trigger points.
