    I’m with labrador-guy … it sounds like fuel starvation. the only other problem I’ve had with RD was cracked coils. (if you ignore the prank my buddy played on my by switching the sparkplug leads and the aluminum tag for top cylinder!).

    Now, that being said (oh, fleetwin already mentioned it), replacement coils can be flaky if they’ve been around too much moisture. Coil / Condenser shorting problems may not be evident when an engine is cold but occur when it gets up to temp.
