I had a similar problem and it turned out to be the wire in the distributor that went from the points to the coil. The copper was broken in the insulation. This just produced a misfire. I would not say it only misfired on one plug at a time though. I found it by connecting an old timing light between the coil and the high tension input to the distributor as well as a normal volt meter to the low tension input. Comparing them I found that the LT had voltage when the points should have been closed.
