Plug wires and plugs have been replaced. Compression check shows 220 psi in all four cylinders. Cylinder #4 is not firing even though the plug and wire is. Could this be a bad fuel injector on cylinder #4? Any suggestions on what we could check?

My Celica just did the same, it was #2. Someone told me to use a mechanics stethoscope ($5-$10) and hold it to each injector. Listen to the good ones first and then check the one you think is bad. If you hear and it is ticking, but like a higher pitch dry tick, you may have a clog in your fuel rail.
