Default cylinder misfire ?

i have a 95' gsx eclipse and when you are driving at 55mph then stop the car sounds as if it has mild cams, then if you give it gas it seems to have a lot less power until you turn the car off and restart it. any ideas ?

I would really look at them and if they were cheap wires I'd get a better set.

What kind of plugs? I had one plug on my old 90 gsx that was cracked and only missed under a load. Do u have a another set of wires you could try swapping out.
