Hi, I redid the complete engine all cylinders have good compression and the fuel injector is working hundred percent, but for some reason number two cylinder not working (whether it is in or out). what else must be done? I replaced all the parts from the distributor to the wires, fuel pump, oil pump and a whole lot more.

You need to confirm that you have compression. spray pattern at the injector, spark and that there is no vacuum leak around the inlet port of that cylinder, swap spark plugs to see if the fault changes cylinders. it will be something simple i feel.

When you pull the spark plugs out do they all look the same? can you take a picture of the plug that is not firing and upload it?

This will help us get the problem fixed.

Here is a guide:

Please let us know what happens.
