RE: Dead #4 cylinder

Andy,

I know very well how you feel, been there a time or two myself. What occurs
to me as the only possibility, and one that you didn't mention explicitly
checking, is the #4 spark plug. Put in a new plug and give it a try if you
haven't already. BTW, you can use your timing light to see if you have a
good current pulse (spark) going through the #4 plug wire. It should sit
dead steady like the #1 plug, except at BDC instead of TDC.


Good luck,

Bob
