Many thanks to all that responded to The Miss, with a nod to Jay Rabe for
getting nailing the way to test my hypothesis:

I did and it did.. So, now that the miss has been tracked, has anyone any
experience with taking the distribution head apart.
I have a Bosch book that I seem to recall mentions that the assembly should
not be disassembled...
I've come up with pulling all the fittings, lifting the "Plate" and blowing
compressed air back through the outlet, hoping to launch the offending
debris out the fuel inlet.
Other than that, I've pulled a few of the hex drive "caps" adjacent to the
outlets, and pulled the tapered plugs located under the caps.
I've found realy filthy gas/rust/debris in there, and will pull and clean
the rest, however, on replacement, the car ran even worse.
Should these plugs be bottomed out, or adjusted in some way?
Any help would be appreciated.
Lastly,if all else fails,I'll be facing replacement of the whole "box"..
Does anyone happen to have one handy for sale? I'd prefer one freshly
removed from a system, to one that had been off, and drying/open to
contamination for years.
Best regards, and aTdHvAaNnKcSe for the continuing help and support.
