FOUND THAT # 1 CYLINDER WAS ARCING TO CHASSIS GROUNG AND REPLACED CAP, ROTOR AND WIRES. AFTER CHECING FOR GOOD SPARK, DID A COPRESSION CHECK AND FOUND ONLY ONE CYLINDER WAS INCONSISTANT WITH IN TOLERANCES 110,160,170 AND 150 RESPECTIVELY CYLINDERS 1 THRU 4.

IS TIMING THE NEXT BEST AREA TO INSPECT?
