Engine Mechanical problem
1989 Suzuki Sidekick 4 cyl Four Wheel Drive Manual 125k miles

I recently picked up this 91 Suzuki Sidekick. The guy i bought it from was having trouble getting it running right. After a little research i found that the motor is actually a 1.3l witch they only put in these trucks in 89. Obviously there has been a motor swap at some time. My problem is that i am gettin good spark on the #2 cylinder but when its running and i disconnect the plug wire nothing changes. All the others when disconnected make the motor stumble and almost die. Its running like crap and right now its the only vehicle i have. What can i do?
