a lot of early cars run very rich on cold start and this can cause a fuel mis-fire.....................sounds like what you have, though it would be worth having a good check out anyways

If your not sure dont chance it, murphy's law (if it can go wrong it will)
When im changing my plug's i spray a small bit of wd-40 on the rubber boot and slide it up the lead, then a long nose pull it off.
You can damage the lead if you just reef it off.
