I found the problem finally. It was #3 COP. I took resistance readings from the contact point spring for the spark plug to either of the input terminals. Accel is a reading of 6.3 on the 200k scale and compared to a stocker of 5.2-5.6. The third coil I replaced read 4.3 and I figured that was the culprit before I started the engine to try it. This reading confirms why it wasn't a complete misfire. I'm just still used to complete misfires from single coil setups. I'm not at all a chebie fan but the coil per cylinder setup is ez as far as troubleshooting. Thanx to all for the inputs.
