    Intermittent spark

    A couple questions,
    1. When I was using my carbtune the other day, I noticed the spark was kind of intermittent. Does that make sense? You know, it would be sparking really good and then like miss, not a steady spark. What would cause that?
    2. My spark was a yellow color only on the number 2 carb and the carbtune said it should be a nice blue. In order to get it to the blue color I actually had the air screw lightly seated. Number 1 wasn't a whole lot better, about a half turn out. Three and four were real good, about 1 1/2-2 turns out. I guess the obvious would be I have a vacuum leak somewhere is that correct?
    Thanks for the help.

        I'd fix the air leak and go from there, they could be related.

          Just guessing... bad plug cap (5k value), spark plug wire cracked or a fouled spark plug...
