Saturday I changed just the #4 and #8 spark plugs to minimize any changes and turned the key.
It fired on the first crank and runs normally now. I then let it cool and changed the rest of the spark plugs and fired it again and all is well.

It was cold when I started it the first time before the misfire so I guess when I choked it I got enough fuel into those two cylinders to kill the plugs!! I have never had that happen before because the plugs had only about 500 miles on them!!
