intake gasket would be low all the time,you have an ignition issue ,move your timing light from wire to wire and see if you have a light on all of them , or you can pull one off at a time and see if it makes a difference in the way the engine runs ,sounds like more than one cylinder is not getting fire....At least from my couch that is what it looks like ,I wish it were in my driveway...
