Re: missing out

have you checked the fuel system at all??

water separator, fuel filters, fuel lines, anti-siphon valve, fuel pump pressure/vaccuum, fuel vent line, etc...

Re: missing out

Start with a compression test.
If you have low compression on a cylinder, all the ignition and fuel system checks and repairs will do nothing.
