Correct, but if there is a distributor and wires, it could be the plug or the spark plug wire.

Suggested Repair

If the engine has a coil for each cylinder, test or replace the cylinder 4 coil. If it uses a distributor and plug wires, inspect the number 4 spark plug and spark plug wire.

Conversation Summary

The owner of a 2001 Daewoo Lanos 1.5L reports no spark on cylinder 4 and asks whether a bad coil or cam sensor is the cause. Experts say a coil-per-cylinder setup points to that cylinder's coil, while a distributor and wires point to the spark plug or plug wire.
