Default '87 sputtering possible misfire

I recently pulled one of the spark plugs to take a look at it. Looked fine, reinstalled it and now it runs like this
. I then removed the same sparkplug again and inspected it along with the spark plug wire which also looked good. Haven't checked the gap but it was running fine before I removed it. At the same time that I pulled the plug I also took a look at the throttle body by removing the hose that connects it to the airbox. Probably not the problem but you never know. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
