Start basic and give it a service with new filters and plugs. It is unusual as i would have expected you to feel misfire more underload in 2/3rd.

As for it sounding a little tappety....could be many things but might be worth having a look at studs around the manifold.

I am sure someone more knowledgeable will be along soon.

Tappety.... injectors make some noise. The motor has solid lifters.

Spun rod bearing sounds like its coming from the top of the motor.
