I would first check the spark plug leads. If your car is a G series engine, then the long, plastic ends that go on the plugs down inside the head break down over time and with heat, and little burnt spots on them will signify the leads are shorting to earth. This may not be a problem at low speed/low load, but when the engine is under load, the spark wants to go anywhere other than to the spark plug. This problem may not be there when engine is cold, but if left, it will be there all the time (if it is the leads). Good luck.
