All good advice - thanks

I did remove the plug leads from the distributor and the way in which they connect is quite fragile ( a small pin which perforates the side of the lead) so I might double check those connections.

The fuel theory is an interesting point - I have added some Redex lead additive (only because I put some in the tank of my 67 Mustang and thought it might be a nice "treat" for the Packard to have some too). That might actually be the problem as in fact the misfire could have started at about the time that the fuel mixture would have been drawn through.

I'll experiment and report back
