Anyway, has anyone had an experience like this, where there was very
obvious ignition miss immediately after a
full throttle acceleration?

Something like that happens if you occasioned damage to the torque
converter; it shudders from then on not unlike a missing cylinder. Of
course, replacing spark plugs won't help this.
Well, I didn't want to declare success until the car had been driven and
brought up to full engine temp, etc. I STILL don't know what the hell
happened, but it must have been in the plugs. I might Ohm them out
before chucking them. So, my wife drove it yesterday and said it ran
perfectly fine. The funny thing is it really felt like it was missing
on at least TWO cylinders, it was much more than a little rough at the
end, and continuing to get worse. We restarted it twice after the
initial rough running.
