Car stumbles throughout RPMs???

It is a 2.5 throttl body 4 cylinder. It sounds like a ignition miss but all ignition components are working. Plugs, wires, cap, rotor and module are good. It is rather annoying. The engine bogs slightle there is a engine speed drop. It is very intermittent with no pattern.

What could the problem be.

Possibly the Distributor Pickup Coil. A testy little device that is often overlooked.
