I hear you.
I never did eyeball the spark. The timing light told me that ignition was working. At that point I pulled all the plugs just to get an idea of what was going on. I broke one getting it out. So, looking for the easy solution,I installed the ngks. Car is now starting and running very well. My fear of an intermittent situation has been disproven. Something was wrong with the plugs.

Your idea of have the plugs cleaned and tested is a good one. I will look into that.

Thanks for the response and input.

Thanks brickboard.
