Wow, thanks for your input. I will definitely try the needle idea first and follow up with a plug replacement. In some ways it does 'feel' like a plug problem, however the plugs are always clean and shiny. Sometimes a little too wet, however if I lean it up the problem tends to get worse quickly (and heat becomes an issue). In some ways I hope it is the plug, that would be an easy fix. However I have a lot of those $11.00 things and so I kinda hope that's NOT the problem =). Thanks again.
