==========================================

Normally on a cold engine .without a choke / too lean choke....yes....

If it happens after the engine is warmed, 180f  coolant at T-stat 
housing....then it is either "crossfire" of plug wires  or  sticking intake valves...

Try some "top engine oiler " in the gas...
