I took the opti apart to findeverything covered in oil. Turns out my bad water pump seal leaked oil all overmy optispark until it covered the optical sensor in it. Luckily I have alifetime warranty on my opti and got a new one for free. I also bought the specialtool ($11 on Ebay) required to install the water pump drive seal on my timingcover correctly so it won’t leak. While I was there I also installed a summitracing (CVR) electric water pump as well. I put it all back together and itworks as good as new again. No misfiring at any RPMs and no more oil leaking.Thanks to everyone for all your help!
    GREAT NEWS MAN!

    LOVE a happy ending!!!
