It's probably not that - it's probably a worn cap, rotor or spark plug wires, if it's an ignition problem. Also, if the fuel injection system is running way too rich or way too lean, then you will have issues with the spark properly igniting the mixture. I would change out the cap, rotor and wires at this point and see if that makes a difference. Cool wheels by the way.
