Misfires can have several causes: 1) poor fuel mixture - carburetter or injector problem. 2) poor spark - ignition module, timing pickup, contact breaker worn, condenser breakdown. 3) valve face burned or leaking; ring broken or worn, piston scored and leaking. Items 2) and 3) are tested with a spark tester and ignition timing tester for 2and a compression tester for 3)

Does bad spark plugs give you rough idle?

Bad spark plugs can indeed cause an engine to idle rough. If any of the spark plugs are misfiring or are not producing enough of a spark to ignite the fuel, then not only will the engine idle roughly, it will alwso waste gas. If may seem as though it is running fine when you are driving however, you still may be wasting gas and your pickup may not be as fast as it should.
