If you're concerned about fuel, pull the #3 & #4 plugs after cranking with
wires disconnected and see if they are wet.
I'd probably hook up an inductive timing light to the offending wires and
see if I get a flash, then if not I would check the contacts in the cap to
verify contact, rotor, and compare resistance reading of offending wires
with good wires. Also double check points for correct operation.
Good luck.
