Had an intermittent miss once, though it was mostly higher speeds under load.
Finally diagnosed with the 'dark test:'
run the car in a dark garage--but with plenty of ventilation--and look for any
sparking. My problem was an aftermarket
distributor cap that leaked. Put an original Lucas in; problem solved. Also,
if you're running a standard distributor
cap with carbon-core wires you'll get missing sooner or later.
But, an intake leak sounds more likely in your case (but the dark test is quick
and easy).
