Atleast it's nice to know there still are things to check even though it's a bit stressfull.

I hope someone can comment on the polarity issue too.

Thanks for you input.

Current status:

-Intermittend cutting of ingnition on some/maybe all cylinders (found by attaching the HELLA non_adjustable timing light on different plug wires)
-Green wire polarity to the MSD seems to be (has always been) wrong(?) (with about 40BTDC at idle) but the other polarity makes mechanical sounds with about correct advance 10 BTDC

- plug gaps at 0.04 which might be too much as last year it was around 0.028 with the same plugs
- new rotor and cap
- plug wires measured pretty good 1.8Kohm-4.8Kohm
- CIS pressures are fine (I have permanent gauge)
- AFR not sure of the real value as misfiring makes it seem lean but adjusting it doesn't help
