I was having the same exact problem and it turned out to be the spark plugs even though they were virtually brand new (NGK, properly gapped, less than 100 miles old!). I THINK that the problem was that I tightened the them too much, because one of them broke at the white porcelain part as I removed it. I put in a new set and the problem dissappeared, never to occur again.
The plugs need not be tightened much more than 1/4 turn past "hand tight." Also, be sure to use some of that "dielectric" grease on the spark plug contacts.
Go ahead and give it a try - if it's not the problem then you have an extra set of plugs.
Good Luck!
