Anything is possible, but from what you're describing, the Optispark is not the likely culprit. Usually, when an Optispark is going bad, you'll get misfires and hesitation in the upper RPM range.

There are so many variables to check:

I would check the throttle body first. Maybe it needs a cleaning.
