Unhappy Possible misfire?

Good afterrnon, I recently purchased my first car, its a Nissan Micra Wave 1Ltre, 1994

I've noticed a problem which usually happens when im idle at traffic lights or accelorating in low gears, the car will just stop as if its stalled. The symptoms include irregular shaking and shuttering vibrations through the car when idle.

I replaced the spark plugs which where filfthy, this seemed to fix the problem for 2 weeks. I then removed the new spark plugs to find they where black like the old ones!!! So ive been cleaning them with a wire brush and putting them back in as a temp fix.

Does anyone know whats causing this problems? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
