I would put Iridium plugs in, specifically these:
NGK BPR7EIX stock number 4055.
And set the gap to 0.028 and see how it idles.
Andyin PDX has me considering AC-Delco, and now I've stumbled onto AC-Delco RapidFire 4 plugs which specify a gap of 0.040 and specifically state not to change the gap. That larger gap would help idle theoretically.
Since you have lambda, you can use a dwell meter to measure CO. I have a 1976 without lambda, so I don't know what I'm talking about. It's something a mechanic told me. Maybe someone else can shed light on it?
