Alan,

  I had the same exact problem once with an MGB. Went through the entire ignition system and then to the carbs. Never once thought to check the spark plugs snce I had replaced them within the previous couple thousand miles. Well, finally checked them and found that, for some reason, #3 plug gap had narrowed itself from the 0.028" I normally ran to 0.009". Reset it and all was well. For a while at least until something else decided to go on permanent vacation. I think it was 1st gear that checked out next!

  I still have the car although it now has a Datsun 280z 5 speed in place of the original 4 (now 3) speed tranny.

  Hope this helps!

Regards,
Ben Pender
