> Changed Plugs, still skipping.
> Changed plug wires, nothing yet.
> Changed distributer cap. Some improvement,  At least car could go down the

> There still doesn't seem to be any spark in # 2 cylinder.
> At least when I unplug # 2 theres no difference.
> If  I unplug any of the other spark plugs the idle changes.
