Ok this is driving me nuts! For reference again it is a 22RE with a rebuilt head, EB 268 cam. Block was rebuilt, cylinders .040" over, new .040 pistons/rings. Crank .010 under, new bearings all around. Looks like I'm running on 3 cylinders. When I pull wires off 2, 3, and 4 the motor stumbles. Nothing changes when I pull 1, and although it starts up and I can drive it there is no power.

I need ideas guys, this is what I've done so far:

+ Compression test - 140, 140, 140, 134
+ New plugs, tried 2 new sets of wires, new cap/rotor.
+ Tried 2 different distributors
+ Set initial timing according to the FSM, 5 BTDC, rotor at 11 o'clock.
+ Verified spark coming out of all the wires
+ When I pull the #1 plug it comes out wet while the others are dry and have obviously been firing.

Please share any and all ideas you have, this is frustrating the ***** out of me. I need to get a set of Toyota wires, the Advance Auto Parts crap keep coming apart leaving the clip on the end of the plugs even when I use a wire boot pliers.

Also, I got new NGK plugs, but realized they don't match the ones listed in the book. All but #1 seems to be working fine, and I even swapped #1 and #2 and the plugs seem to be working. I don't know if I'm just not getting the timing right or what. But timing wouldn't make one cylinder not fire would it?
