You can swap in new plugs and wires if you are about due. If you have the opportunity, you can also start it and allow it to run for a bit while it's rough, then shut it off and compare plugs to determine which cylinder(s) are missing. If it's a coolant leak, the exhaust will have a sweet smell. \ That's the thing, no sweet smell or white smoke. Last time I adjusted the valves I tightened the lash a little more than I have in the past but that was last fall and it ran good after that. I'm thinking I've got a valve that's too tight and not sealing until it warms up but lash loosen over time not tightens?
