Hi dougg, I've found that this is more of a universal problem. Other vehicles experience the same issue and have found that the intake manifold gasket had a very slow leak causing the same misfire symptom. I don't know how you would test for this happening on your vehicle, but it's definitely worth a shot. Hope this helps!
