Causing the Miss what does this sound like to you? Thanks a ton bye mike

Answer
Michael,
This sounds like it could be a problem with the car's computer. Seeing that everything runs fine when first started, then starts to you loose spark on 2 cylinders after a few minutes, that's something a malfunctioning computer can cause.  It's also a good idea to be sure the engine is getting enough fuel.  If the computer detects a lack of fuel being delivered, it can reduce spark as well.  But have the computer checked, that may be the cause.
Good luck!
