Yes, carbon build up on the points effects the combustion of the air/fuel mixture inside the bore.
Another PerspectiveActually, carbon buildup on a sparkplug electrode provides a less resistive path for the electrical spark to follow, resulting in NO spark inside the combustion chamber.If a 4 cylinder engine only runs on 3 of those cylinders, anyone around the vehicle will definitely notice the fact that the engine is misfiring and if inside the vehicle, you will feel the misfire and loss of power.
